Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Also, I have one more question to ask
How do you install pico on FreeBSD 9?
1) I downloaded the package called pico-alpine-2.00_1.tbz
2) use pkg_add pico-alpine-2.00_1.tbz. That requires aspell-0.60.6.1
3) I pkg_add -r aspell, it says
4) pkg_add: can't stat package file 'aspell-0.60.6.1'
Thanks
Jack

You have a conflict between pkgconf and pkg-config according to your screenshot. Resolve that issue first before trying again by uninstalling one (or both). Since the required package will be installed as dependency for tdb that should solve your problem unless there is another issue at hand. Take it step by step.

Hi Eric,
is it true that pkgconf or pkg-config package is used for the command pkg_add?
Would that be dangerous to remove one or both of them?
Thanks

Hi,
As you edited your original post indicating the distribution you're using I think, like pointed out by evo2, that you might have better luck in the BSD forums. Ask a moderator to move your thread there (click the Report button on your post). Since I'm not acquainted with BSD/FreeBSD I don't think I can be very helpful because of the differences between Linux and BSD.
Please post your thread in only one forum. Posting a single thread in the most relevant forum will make it easier for members to help you and will keep the discussion in one place. This thread is being closed because it is a duplicate.
