Support for OpenBSD

Open remembertoremind opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

Hi! Thanks for a great project. I really like it so far.

As the title says. Is there any chance of support for OpenBSD?

Hi @remembertoremind, I am glad you like it. Just to confirm, what would be required for OpenBSD support? I do not currently have a virtual machine with OpenBSD to test this.

Edit: I recommend trying the beta version. The current stable version of Maestral comes with precompiled modules which may not run on all platforms.

Hi! Thanks for the answer. I jumped the gun on OpenBSD a few days ago but had to let it go again since it didn't sit well with my laptop. If you want, I can set up a VM and test later this week. When I do, I'll start with the beta and see how far I can get :) Thanks again!

@samschott, considering that OpenBSD is POSIX like macOS should be, and both are certainly derivatives of BSD, I would not expect a great deal of work to be necessary. However, @remembertoremind, I believe that the aforementioned weekend might have elapsed, so have you any fruits of your endeavours worth sharing yet?
