II. Installer and UI Dependencies
The Bordeaux Progress bar depends on Zenity, Zenity can be installed on FreeBSD and PC-BSD through the ports system.
The Bordeaux UI is written in GTK and requires the GTK2 runtime environment to be installed on your system.
We bundle wine, cabextract, wget and unzip with Bordeaux these tools will be installed in "/opt/bordeaux/bin"
The Bordeaux Installer has also been re-written and the dependency on python,PyGTK and xmessage has been removed. The current .sh installer is strictly a shell installer and will install on any BSD system.

IV. How to use Bordeaux
To install Bordeaux for BSD simply run the following command.
$ ./bordeaux-freebsd-2.0.8-i386.sh
The bordeaux-pcbsd.pbi was built on PC-BSD 8, If you use PC-BSD 7 their is a PC-BSD .pbi in the bordeaux-freebsd.tgz package. So if you use PC-BSD 7 please download the bordeaux-freebsd package.
If all the above decencies are met the installer should install Bordeaux in your /opt directory under the name /opt/bordeaux
A Bordeaux menu should be created in your Applications menu but if for some reason the menu doesn't get created you can run Bordeaux with the following command.
/opt/bordeaux/bin/bordeaux-setup
To install a Application simply double click on the the applications name or select it once and then select OK and the install should proceed. To exit Bordeaux click the [x] at the top right of the program.
V. Known Issues
Wine menus are not properly made sometimes, as a work around we install shell script shorcuts for each app we support in /home/user/bin simply double click the app and then select run
or
run $ bin/iexplore to start Internet Explorer for example
If you install IrfanView you have to finish the install and then start Irfanview after you have closed the installer. So DONT run Irfanview from the installer at the end of the install process.
VI. Compatibility
Bordeaux 2.0.8 was tested and built on FreeBSD 8.0, PC-BSD 7.1 and PC-BSD 8.0, if Bordeaux doesn't operate correctly on your system file a issue and we will investigate the problem.
