Where can I find the FSSTD, and FHS standard? And what do they stand for? Edward Ing -Original Message- From: Mitch Blevins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Date: Tuesday, November 24, 1998 11:41 PM Subject: Re: I am quite familiar with redhat, but I am wonderi

What I really like is the way FreeBSD has laid out there port making system.

I liked it so much, I downloaded the FreeBSD port making tree into linux and tried a "make install." It didn't work of course. But anybody got and idea about how much work it would take to get whole ports structure paralleled for Debian or Redhat? All the code is open, I believe. Edward Ing
