Has anyone tried to build trinity for FreeBSD ?
I am currently building a new system based on FreeBSD and I would like to attempt to build trinity.
I would like to create ports build if I am successful with the build.
I am studying the build from source instructions posted on the website. I believe that this will be a difficult one as it appears that trinity favors Linux.
The following appears to be problem areas:
Should be installed in /use/local/<whatever>.
Scripts contained in the source files have !#/bin/bash. Do the scripts contain bash-ims? FreeBSD used the bourne shell not bash IE #!/bin/sh.
FreeBSD uses clang instead of gcc.
FreeBSD has dropped HAL in xorg. udev not supported.
I am not intending to use linux compatibility ports, as I am looking to run this on the FreeBSD bare metal.
Comments?
Hi!
I'm working on FreeBSD, too.
you'll need to install: gcc47 (or newer), bash, cmake to get started.
There are awful bashisms in all cmake ports, you'll need a syslink from /bin/bash to /usr/local/bin/bash. Also you'll need symlinks from "gcc" and "g++" to your actual compiler.
tqt3 and tqtinterface builds without bigger problem using gcc or clang.
At the moment I'm stuck with alsa at building arts :-/
I install anything in /opt/trinity and ignore /usr/local/ till I run into a problem.
HAL in form of "hald" isl supported on FreeBDS 10.1, udev is "devd". I do not see any sign of them getting dropped.

What does FreeBSD recommend as a HAL replacement? udev was the closest I could find, and even then I had to implement huge chunks of HAL functionality on top of udev, udisks, upower, etc. Surely they aren't suggesting applications natively probe the hardware; that would be ridiculous and never supported by TDE.
