https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=281837 --- Comment #30 from Fernando ApesteguĂa <fernape@FreeBSD.org> --- (In reply to Alex S from comment #27) I agree this situation is far from ideal, but leaving the c7 packages as if nothing happened would have been detrimental for users. I think it is better that they are aware those packages are deprecated upstream and they will not get any security updates. The documentation only recommends c7 if 32 bit support is necessary. In that case it is at users' discretion to do so. I'm open to clarify the docs if necessary. Replacing/adding another Linux emulation package set is very costly and won't happen anytime soon. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
