freebsd-ports/emulators/linux_base-f10/pkg-descr
Boris Samorodov c11516af7b Here are new Linux Fedora 10 infrastructure ports.
Those ports are intended to be used with 8-CURRENT at least
with SVN r192206.

If you want to switch to linux-f10 ports, please define at /etc/make.conf:
  OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=f10
  OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS=f10

An upgrading procedure is shown at /usr/ports/UPDATING, entries 20090401
and 20070327.

For the first time all tested linux ports work as expected(!):
. acroread8;
. google-earth;
. skype;
. seamonkey.

Many thanks for kernel folks who really did the main work
(and I wrote only some lines of ports).

There is a good chance that those ports may become a default
for 8.0-RELEASE. Please, test and report back to emulation@ ML.

This port contains packages from a near-minimal installation of Fedora 10
Linux. These packages, in conjunction with the linux kernel module,
form the basis of the Linux compatibility environment. It is designed to
provide a nice user experience by using the FreeBSD configuration for
corresponding Linux stuff where possible. Because of this any work which
needs to chroot into the linux base may not work as expected (no fallthrough
to the FreeBSD config possible).
This port is only available for the i386/amd64 architecture (i386/32 bit mode).
If you want to run X11 applications, install the x11/linux-xorg-libs port.
For cross-development this port is not suitable, you should use a linux_dist
port instead in this case.
