First of all, thanks for the feedback. Since your changes involve autoconf, makefile and C code changes, I will first take the upstream relevant changes and get them into upstream (since I do work on upstream as well). With the next upstream release of BRLTTY (hopefully 3.8) I will then do the remaining changes to the packaging. Let me ask you some specific questions: > * brltty_Programs_Makefile.in-kfreebsd.diff: > As far as I understand it, it is sufficient to copy sys_freebsd.c > and usb_freebsd.c to respectively sys_kfreebsd.c and usb_kfreebsd.c > (in Programs), and to add them in this Makefile.in to allow the > build on GNU/kFreeBSD.

As I understand it, the kFreeBSD project uses a more or less unmodified FreeBSD kernel with a different user-space. What exactly do you expect that we'd have to modify in *_kfreebsd.c? Since these files in BRLTTY define the layer into different kernels, I kind of wonder if we really want to copy these files. -- CYa, Mario | Debian Developer <URL:http://debian.org/> .''`. | Get my public key via finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] : :' : | 1024D/7FC1A0854909BCCDBE6C102DDFFC022A6B113E44 `. `' `- <URL:http://delysid.org/> <URL:http://www.staff.tugraz.at/mlang/>
