It should basically +work, and there are some modules with FreeBSD-specific properties. -This branch is to add FreeBSD support to Propellor. The first steps -will focus around package management with pkg-ng. - -# Bootstrapping - -The current Bootstrap process is very apt-centric, so current efforts -are focusing on passing the System information down into Bootstrap. - -Affected functions are: - -* `installGitCommand`, which has to install pkg itself, then install - git. The `ASSUME_ALWAYS_YES` environment variable must be set so pkg - will just do its thing. - -* `depsCommand`, which installs as many Haskell dependencies from the - system package manager. We also install gmake, but I'm not sure - where this is used yet. +However, many other properties assume they're being run on a +Debian Linux system, and need additional porting to support FreeBSD. |
