So > it does not build in many places. Solaris 6 is pretty ancient (1997!) so I'm not surprised it doesn't work... Problems with lib/cvsapi are for the next release now as we're frozen for this release. I need to separate/replace all the GPL stuff so it's replaced with LGPL/BSD (since cvsapi is LGPL it currently can't use the lib replacement functions). The whole thing needs a bit of restructuring anyway. > On Solaris 8 only one error shows up: > > source='../../cvsnt/protocols/library_unix.cpp' object='library_unix.o' libtool=no \ > sparc-sun-solaris2.8-g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../cvsnt/protocols -I.. -I../src -I../../cvsnt/src -I../../cvsnt/lib -DCVS_CONFIG_DIR=\"/etc/cvsnt\" -DCVS_LIBRARY_DIR=\"/usr/local/lib/cvsnt\" -g -O2 -threads -c -o library_unix.o `test -f '../../cvsnt/protocols/library_unix.cpp' || echo '../../cvsnt/protocols/'`../../cvsnt/protocols/library_unix.cpp > ../../cvsnt/protocols/library_unix.cpp:26:18: ltdl.h: No such file or directory ltdl.h is in the libltdl directory & should be addded automatically if needed. > And for cross compiling there are some constructs in configure.in, > that are not working: > i.e. # Check for /usr/include/howl > and other locations where absolute path names are used I don't expect cross compiling to work... not something I'm even able to test or have any idea of the requirements. AFAIK it would have to be a static build (which doesn't currently work). Tony
