![]() ![]() ![]() I can't check right now but I think the build process uses the headers in the repository tree rather then in the default include paths, and also links against the just-built-libraries rather than the ones in the rtld search path, so you should in theory also be able to change the major version (downwards). Ports and other third-party software will probably all break and need to be rebuilt completely after a downgrade, and mergemaster might eventually not work, either ( if it works by comparing revision numbers, that is, I never looked into it ). ![]() I don't see a reason why someone would want to downgrade to a lower minor release of the same major version, but I don't see a reason why it shouldn't work, either. Hello, how I can do a downgrade from FreeBSD 8.1 to 7.x? NOTE: this topic is just a worthless trash can of various threads about installing/running METIN2 (illegally) on FreeBSD. Dedicating forum space to technical advice concerning an outdated version of FreeBSD is not in the interest of FreeBSD's development and its users at large. Since this is obviously not possible because Metin2 relies on FreeBSD 7.2 libraries, binaries, etcetera, we would be forced to go against FreeBSD's own policy, which is: upgrade when your current FreeBSD version reaches end-of-life, because we will not support it any longer, not even for security fixes. The logical and proper reply to any technical issue dealing with FreeBSD 7.2 is: "Upgrade to a more recent version of FreeBSD first".
