debian compatibility layer - PC-BSD Forums

Gon · #1 03-30-2006, 10:16 AM

I would like to add the debian compatibility but it seems to be broken.
So I tried to add the redhat9 compat and install apt rpm but it sucks. As well as rpm system does. I dont wanna try to install a rpm, and see 10 missed libraries that i should search for, and look for the first missed lib and see that It needs 3 more missed libs...... :x
Is out there a possibility of using a debian compat layer?
Or other compat layer that doesnt let me have headache just installing one rpm...

Thnx :roll:

You can try out Gentoo compat layer also.
