Hello Jim, hello Bob here is my summary of the final outcome. Baseline: All problems solved, but some curious questions on my part...

This is very likely your problem. Yes, configure left to its own devices, chooses -Ae but neither -D_POSIX_SOURCE nor -D_HPUX_SOURCE. (In fact -D_HPUX_SOURCE already is set when you use -Ae; "Requests a compilation in ANSI C mode with HP C extensions. This option is the same as specifying -Aa, -D_HPUX_SOURCE, and +e.") With that (-Ae alone, no other additions) coreutils is successfully build and checked. That leaves two problem for me: How do I tell configure to add the '+DAportable' ? Drop the '-g' and instead add '+O2' Jim wrote: >If you want to add options like +O2, then >it's better to use AM_CFLAGS. Is this also an environment var ? (I assume I have to fiddle with autoconf ?)

I checked with NFS (fail) and without (pass). (Is there a note on this ? I searched for NFS, but found none) Thanks your help Martin _______________________________________________ Bug-textutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-textutils
