Solaris x86 Porting

Hi,

I am trying to compile on Solaris 10 using the Sun Studio compiler but am having issues. In particular, rpict does not get made (amongst other things). How can I go about getting some help debugging the problems? I can include the ./makeall install output, but it is rather lengthy.

Thanks!

Jim

Hi Jim,

Although lengthy, a good place to start would be to include output from the makeall script.

Hi,

I am trying to compile on Solaris 10 using the Sun Studio compiler but
am having issues. In particular, rpict does not get made (amongst other
things). How can I go about getting some help debugging the problems? I
can include the ./makeall install output, but it is rather lengthy.

If I remember right, makeall does not stop if there's something going
wrong, so I'd edit it and add an 'echo' in front of the call to make,
and then take the output and run every line manually. For the Debian
package I re-qrote makeall, but that's not platform independent.
Although I could come up with a proper Makefile replacement for makeall,
if there's interest.
Also make sure to use the latest HEAD from cvs, probably it just works
then. Unfortunately I don't have access to a Solaris box anymore - my
last machines from SUN are working for the Debian project now :wink:

Hope that helps,

Bernd

Alternatively, you can take the '-k' option out of the rmake script.

Hi all,

Thanks for all the tips. I'll give them a try later today and let you know how it goes.
