>Description:
When we install the 5.3 using the MINIINST image, at one point we're prompted for whether we need Linux Compatibility. Answering yes to this question, install linux_base-6.1.6 (RedHat Linux 6)instead of linux_base which is 7.x (RedHat Linux 7.1).
Netscape 7 port runs only in linux_base port. Pls. consider fixing the installer for future releases to install linux_base instead of linux_base-6.1.6.
>How-To-Repeat:
- Install FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE
- Do a pkg_info | grep -i linux
