NetBase

Netbase is a port of the NetBSD's utilities to another unix like operating systems.

Deps

• bsd make
• gcc or clang
• zlib
• libbz2
• libacl
• libfts ( for musl ) ( if your distribution does not have it, you can try this https://github.com/littlefly365/libfts )
• libmd
• libcurses ( only tested on ncurses )

Info

• The compat libraries use only code from the netbsd source tree(or libbsd).
• The goal of this project is port netbsd userland to another systems with tiny modifications to the original source.
• now are avaible ~90 commands ported from netbsd

important

• if you see build or runtime errors tell me (Note: The utils are tested on Arch/Alpine and only with a basic use of them).
• This project try to make posible a GNUless system, so with some utilities like diff and diff3 (netbsd does not have it) we will use code from openbsd or freebsd

Compatibility Matrix

Platform	Status
Linux glibc	☑️ Works
Linux musl	☑️ Works

Only Musl

ln -svf ../netbsd/sys/cdefs.h include/sys/cdefs.h

export LBFTS="-lfts"

Both

bmake

TODO

Plataform/Goal	Status
glibc	☑️ yes
musl	🧪 WIP
another libc	🧪 untested
Full Userland (! GNU)	🧪 partial (coreutils)
