Well, I need FreebSD 9 source to compile fusefs-kmod, which is required by gvfs, which’s in turn required by xfce.
A lot of people recommend to use sysinstall to add the so called userland sources.
sysinstall -> Configure -> Distribution -> src
However, it didn’t work!!
Thanks to wblock@[1] who pointed out that “sysinstall is mostly dead” and suggested a few ways to get the sources to your system. One of them is:
Download the tar file that matches the version you installed. In my case it’s amd64:
# wget ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/9.0-RELEASE/src.txz
Unpack the archive to /usr/src:
# tar -C / -xvzf src.txz
