Hello,

Thank you for your reply.

It is what I expected (to use the Linux emulation to run the compiler).

But is there a FreeBSD port of it (I do not think that)?

Can I use the Linux packaging tools (for example rpm with
linux-base-rh*, and dpkg with linux-base-debian)? How?

Thanks and Best Regards,
Ale
