Hello, First, please direct to another list if this is the wrong place to post this. I figured I would start here...
I have recently loaded Debian linux (hamm) onto my SS2. The install went well. I used the 4mm/local hard disk/ftp method (if any one cares :) I am a long time Unix user, long time developer, but a first time Linux user. So, naturally, the first thing I am trying to do with my new environment, is to build something. I decided to download the emacs20_20.2-6 stuff from the Debian ftp site and try and build it. I get to the temacs -dump phase, and then receive a floating point exception error. This error is occurring in the libm.so shared library. Ok, now that I have bored you, here is my question... am I getting the source for Sparc Linux from the correct place ? the emacs code I downloaded was, as I said, from the debiam/hamm ftp site. I installed the source using the dpkg-source module. After the emacs episode, I then tried downloading the glibc-2.0.7s module and compiling it. I figured I should try and find out why I was getting the FPE during my emacs build. Well, I can't build that either. It seems there is a header inclusion problem, etc., but I won't go into that now. Anyway, sorry for the long message. I am very interested in getting my hands around and into the Debian code, and eventually maybe even contribute to the cause. Any help would be appreciated.
