As nobody else answered yet, I'll try to:

I'm not sure, if it makes much sense to have VDR on any architecture othe=
r
 than i386/amd64. But I know that VDR runs on FreeBSD and other
architectures and probably a hand full of people really uses VDR there,
even if it's only used as a streaming client.

Besides this - I'm not a BSD user, so I can't decide whether it makes
sense to have a VDR for kfreebsd or not.

The people more involved with the kfreebsd port (like) should decide this=

and it might be a good idea to ask on debian-devel too.

bye,

Tobias
