Hello:
I'm a newbie trying to learn something about FreeBSD inside VirtualBox.
I've tried installing Xorg and I got the following error (see screenshot).
I'm pretty sure I know what it's telling me, that xrdb has a known, unpatched vulnerability and that it won't install until it is patched. Quite smart, actually.
However my ports tree is up to date - that's the first thing I did just before I tried to make Xorg. I used portsnap fetch then portsnap update as the handbook describes (my /usr/ports was already populated from the install CD).
Of course it would be wise to stop here in a production environment, but seeing as I'm just trying to learn a thing or two in VirtualBox and want to try FreeBSD out, is there a way to get xrdb installed anyway? I just want to try out X, that's all.
According to http://vul.hackerjournals.com/?p=20500 , the vulnerability was first reported on April 15th, so it's fairly recent.
