    FreeBSD 14.3 version installation KDE fails

    Did you add all the appropriate entries to /etc/rc.conf? What's the output of cat /etc/rc.conf?

    Where else can tmpfs be mounted besides /tmp?

    As I said, I don't do that. Only for some specific subdirectories, not the entire .cache directory. Because the files are not created on the disk to start with. The advantage of keeping all of the browser's cache and history is, for me at least, marginal at best. With some websites —...

    Where else can tmpfs be mounted besides /tmp?

    Exactly. And some packages can be really big. Personally I prefer to keep them permanently.

    Where else can tmpfs be mounted besides /tmp?

    And in ~/.cache/pip.

    Where else can tmpfs be mounted besides /tmp?

    Why? Aren't its config files under ~/.config/? ~/.cache/ is just that, cache, and not configuration, like ~/*, ~/.config/* and ~/.local/*. Bar some very specific cases, like cracauer@'s LLM example or gstreamer as you mentioned, things like fontconfig and mesa_shader_cache also don't have to be...

    Insufficent privilages to install packages on freebsd

    Did you recently upgrade? Are you increasing privilege with su or similar from a normal user or are you logged in as root? What's the output of these commands: freebsd-version -kru mount ls -ld /var/db/pkg

    Pkg Upgrade failing after upgrading from 13.5 to 14.4

    You need to upgrade all of your packages anyway so why not just save yourself the trouble: backup anything you may want to keep from /usr/local and then nuke the entire thing (pkg databases and /usr/local) and reinstall your packages. It will even be a bit faster than letting pkg do all its...

    Music…

    Recently I've discovered this sublime songstress called Maphra. Here are three of her cover songs: Doomed by Bring Me The Horizon, Circle With Me by Spiritbox and Specter by Bad Omens. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6L-GUOAhGo View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUiL0qsNg9w...

    Solved deno

    roper, it's obvious now that the problem is not with yt-dlp or its configuration, but with deno not being able to run. You may be running programs built for a different version of FreeBSD, causing an ABI mismatch. What FreeBSD version are you using (freebsd-version -kru)?

    Solved deno

    OpenJDK JRE is a *Java* runtime environment. Deno and Node.js are *JavaScript* runtime environments. Apples and engine parts. yt-dlp can use the following runtimes: Deno (default), Node.js, Bun and QuickJS. Are all your ports/packages up to date? Maybe you have an outdated version of yt-dlp...

    Solved deno

    Did you configure yt-dlp to use it? Add --js-runtimes deno:/usr/local/bin/deno --remote-components ejs:github to ~/.config/yt-dlp/config

    Solved deno

    And why would you do that? When pkg pulls in a dependency, it's because the software needs it to run properly. The deno requirement has been the case for a few weeks now and yt-dlp has been warning about it a few months back already. Recent changes on YouTube made this necessary: it now requires...

    I did something (maybe stupid) with freebsd-update

    tuaris, it seems the update failed before applying any patch, which is good. Clear the freebsd-update working directory with rm -r /var/db/freebsd-update/*, then try to update the host again.

    How avoid installing binary package dependency i dont like?

    You can insert multimedia files into documents/spreadsheets. I guess also audio notifications is a possibility. If you only need a word processor and a spreadsheet editor, may I recommend editors/abiword and math/gnumeric. These are quite good and lighter alternatives to the behemoth...

    Solved Is it still possible to downgrade the root filesystem to read-only?

    I've used it for just that for years. And the Handbook seems to agree:

    FreeBSD technology cemetery: states and stages of decomposition.

    Very quickly? That's a bit of an exaggeration, especially for such a relatively conservative project as FreeBSD. These things take years to change. When features are set as "deprecated", they are phased out through multiple major releases before being removed for good. Personally I haven't used...

    Solved Is it still possible to downgrade the root filesystem to read-only?

    Yikes! You chose the dirtiest method. At least try logging off any logged-in user in case your blockage problem is caused by some active user process. And if the problem, whatever it is, is still not fixed, try going single user. Hopefully this will properly sync everything (write caches) that...

    Solved modesetting difference between 13.2-STABLE and 14.3-RELEASE?

    Are you still testing this? Maybe try release 15.0. Different system, new driver (graphics/drm-66-kmod).

    Solved How to reinstall all packages from backup directory

    I haven't tested this, but have you tried something like pkg add `cat /path/to/package_list.txt`? It should resolve the dependencies as long as you have them in the same directory. Make sure the entire package_list.txt list has only valid package names or it will fail.
