One possible advantage of FreeBSD’s userland compared to for example plain Debian is the ports system, which might be a matter of taste, workflow and infrastructure and so on.LLVM is an alternative for gcc the GNU C compiler. I actually liked Debian GNU/kFreeBSD a lot years ago, FreeBSD kernel and Debian user land.
Funnily enough this distribution doesn’t use that port system.
Indeed. In the meantime I read that the Chimera Linux author is not fond of the ports system.
Thanks for the links. I always thought BSD kernel with Linux userland would be cool (for me). I’ll try that out.
