Hi,
Has anyone had any luck running VICE, specifically the C64 emulator, on FreeBSD? I see it is in ports but not packages (it's marked as broken). And I understand we shouldn't mix packages and ports. So I'm basically wondering if anyone has successfully built the vanilla sources distributed by the VICE project themselves?
There is a C64 cartridge whose code I want to reverse-engineer for a hobby project of mine, and I was hoping to have a Commodore emulator on FreeBSD so I don't need to involve Linux. I've nothing against Linux - this is just a convenience thing because I have so much of the other software I need already installed on FreeBSD (I'm on a metered internet connection so I don't really want to switch to Ubuntu and re-download everything).
Thanks.
