Description lichray 2015-02-08 06:25:30 UTC 
`expr` is resolved to /bin/expr in FreeBSD, also in Linux emulation layer, but linux_base-c6 only has [/compat/linux]/usr/bin/expr installed, result in the FreeBSD version of `expr` being invoked.  Some software breaks.  Linking [/compat/linux]/usr/bin/expr to [/compat/linux]/bin/expr solves the problem.

Log:
  - White space fixes
  - Like r315899 did for linux_base-f10, add some symlinks to linux_base-c6
    for executables that exist in /usr/bin on Linux but /bin on FreeBSD.
    This guarantees that Linux shell scripts run the Linux executables and
    not the FreeBSD ones.
