just did a couple of test builds in Solaris 10u4 x86, and it has no problem using (and detecting) nawk from SUNWesu. > adding checks for them in configure is problematic, because BSD make also > works AFAIK, and the fact that we require GNU make or GNU gcc is IMHO a > portability bug which I'd rather fix than patch around. forgot to mention in this line that there are some patches in trunk which will let you use SUN's compiler, at least in OpenSolaris 2008.05 but those haven't yet backported for 3.1 and most likely won't at least for the first release. in any case, my builds in Solaris 10 either adding /usr/xpg4 to the PATH (hence using /usr/xpg4/bin/sed and /usr/xpg4/bin/nm) or without it (hence using /usr/bin/sed and /usr/ccs/bin/nm) where able to get a working build with modules enabled and none of the other build issues you reported (including python module support). the build environment was using : SUNWgcc SUNWgmake SUNWggrp (for grep) SUNWesu (for nawk) SUNWtoo (for ld) SUNWbtool or SUNWxcu4 (for nm) and for dependencies : apr-1.2.11 (compiled from source) libConfuse-2.5 (compiled from source with --enable-shared --disable-static) SUNWlexpt (for expat) SUNWPython and SUNWPython-devel (for python) Carlo ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
