Since I only have the problem on a solaris 8 (intel) machine. I tried recompiling there. First attempt with no special flags. Just ./configure Then edit src/options.h. Then make. But it errors out like this (Tail of output): [...] gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I. -I../lib -I../diff -I../zlib -Iyes/include -g -O2 -c -o server.o `test -f server.c || echo './'`server.c server.c:31:21: krb5.h: No such file or directory make[3]: *** [server.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/cvs-1.11.1p1/src' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/cvs-1.11.1p1/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/cvs-1.11.1p1' make: *** [all] Error 2 Ok, so trying --disable-server # ./configure --disable-server Same errors Once again with a wild guess: # ./configure --disable-server --with-kerberos=no Still get the same errors. Why is the compile still looking for server realted files? And can I exclude kerberos stuff some home? _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
