yes. The "localbase" for ravenports packages is "/raven" and other than a few select system libraries (libc, libm. librt, etc), everything is self contained. Ravenports uses it's own compiler (gcc 14) so the gcc libraries are pulled into the /raven tree as necessary.
It's totally feasible to have it co-exist with pkgsrc packages. You'll have to set the PATH accordingly though to establish a priority. I expect you should be able to run ravenports firefox but perhaps do it from the native netbsd X / pkgsrc desktop first rather than installing X server from ravenports On Wed, May 28, 2025 at 3:57 PM zamfofex <zamfo...@twdb.moe> wrote: > > Thank you for sharing!
