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?

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.

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. Nik
