LinuxTag We have cool https://eurynome.mirbsd.org/~tg/pub/buttons.png for the LinuxTag: mnbsd (MidnightBSD), Glenda (Plan 9), grml, MirBSD and mksh. mirabilos — 9 months ago

mksh can now be nicknamed “MidnightBSD Korn Shell” but also is default /bin/sh in mnbsd – yay! They’re using R37 already, with all the standards compliance fixes, and are part of an elitist group (Debian, MirBSD, FreeWRT do so too). Good for all of ’em! mirabilos — 12 months ago

    More ports work

    I'm trying to get the mports tree back in line as it used to
    be. I just indexed a magus run. It will be the first
    since January 24th. Several fetch errors and dependancies
    have been fixed since the last run. It will ... [More] be
    interesting. This does not use the new "jail" index setup
    that the January run went on. I haven't had time to set that
    back up on the new server yet. A few failures may be the
    result of that, particluarly with perl related ports. We'll
    see.

    mports updates

    Yesterday, I updated over 70 ports. mports/audio ports
    have all been updated if needed and several in multimedia. I
    also updated browser3 to 3.0.18 this weekend.

    Our status on gnome2 is that many of the core systems ... [More] including
    gstreamer related ports are now working, but we have some issues
    with gnome-desktop preventing a gnome2-lite build from working.

    kde3-base is blocked on a depends against mDNSresponder and
    avahi. I'm trying to figure out what's pulling in
    avahi. These ports do effectively the same thing and they
    conflict with each other.

    FTP status update

    The FTP server is back online. 45GB of data copied.
    I've also posted the new snapshot for i386 tonight.


    Mirmon is now getting updated again with FTP history. Most
    sites haven't tried to sync for a week. Of course there ... [More] was
    nothing to sync. I'm going to verify that rsync is working
    properly tomorrow.

    A few CGI scripts and portions of the site including viewvc and
    the wiki are still down. cvsupd is also not operational due
    to problems on amd64. (i switched architectures in the move)
    Once the port is fixed, I'll get it back online.
    Patches are welcome to speed up the process :)

    The news script should be rotating again on
    midnightbsd.org.

    0.3-CURRENT Snapshot

    I'm pleased to announce a new i386 snapshot for MidnightBSD.
    This is the first snap in some time and a big improvement
    over our previous snapshot. It does not contain mports, but
    is a fully functioning installer. I've tested it on ... [More] VMWare
    Fusion with great success.

    This version includes this weekends work on ata(4), re(4), and
    rl(4).

    I'm going to upload it as soon as the FTP is in place.
