[pkg-firebird-general] How can I help?

[Valdir Marcos]

I tried isql again and its supports auto-completion for linux address such 
as "connect /srv/databases/test/virtual.fdb", but it didn't work for 
firebird commands such as "connect".
See if I can help in something in this back port, but I only have access to 
Intel/AMD computers.
