Bug 216346: emulators/linux_base-c6: Mathematica 10.x doesn't work with recent
linux_base-c6 or -c7
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=216346



--- Description ---
Hi.
I've been using Mathematica 10.x for years successfully
with FreeBSD, but recently it just freezes at the initialization stage
with a message "initializing kernels..." on the initial
Mathematica logo.  At that time, I see a message as follows.

% mathematica
/compat/linux/bin/sh: lfram/Mathematica/10.0/Executables/math: No such file or
directory
/compat/linux/bin/sh: lfram/Mathematica/10.0/Executables/math: No such file or
directory

The actual running processes are as follows.

% ps ww
 PID TT  STAT    TIME COMMAND
2547  0  I    0:00.00 /bin/sh /usr/local/bin/mathematica
2612  0  S    0:00.86
/usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/10.0/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/Binaries/Linux/Mathema
tica
-topDirectory /usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/10.0


It seems the process 2612 tries to launch
"/usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/10.0/Executables/math",
but it is erroneously looking for the file 
"lfram/Mathematica/10.0/Executables/math",
and failed.

I have tried several combinations of the OSes, mathematica versions,
and linux_base versions as follows.

OS (amd64):
FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE     
FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE-p16
FreeBSD 11.0-RELEASE-p7

Mathematica: (32bit version)
mathematica 10.0 
mathematica 10.2

linux_base
linux_base-c7-7.3.1611         freeze
linux_base-c6-6.8_9 (r431790)  freeze
linux_base-c6-6.8_8 (r431465)  freeze
linux_base-c6-6.8_1 (r421307)  freeze
linux_base-c6-6.8   (r419460)  OK
linux_base-c6-6.7_1 (r409060)  OK


The result only depends on the version of linux_base.  It
seems some modification made between linux_base-c6-6.8 and
linux_base-c6-6.8_1 would be responsible for this regression.  

I would be happy if someone helps me to find out which file installed
by linux_base causes this problem.
