I need to install the port misc/compat3x-i386 as a dependency for the

How can I install the port compat3x-i386?
'make install' ?
The port you're trying to install ( mbrola ) is binary only and
requires libraries that are no longer either 1. in the expected
locations or 2. replaced by something better. I suspect since the
maintainer for compat3x listed as [EMAIL PROTECTED] then there's not
much you can do other than mail that list.
If you decide to hack up your own BSD dist, drag in the binary
from ports, and keep adding libraries to your system. The errors from
the binary should point out what's wrong and what to add next.
Not much help, good luck.
Theorem
Nothing there that can be installed for compat3x, so you need to see if
a) the app can be ported to a later version of FreeBSD, and b) see if
the maintainer can swing the upgrade in the Makefile.
FreeBSD 3.x was abandoned a long time ago due to possible security
concerns and support issues :).

Yes, thanks for the tip, did this make it to the list ? I don't see it up
there.
