I did not see any Quagga source for SuSE SLES8. Can I use the source RPM for the Fedora distribution and if so, what if anything do I need to change?
You mention the i386 version and build my s390.rpm package. What do I need to change in the i386 package?
Ideally, nothing... In the early days we had to pick up the proper versions of config.sub and config.guess but these days they are normally up-to-date. Just to try, I picked up the source package for SuSE 9 ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/ftp.suse.com/suse/i386/9.0/suse/src/quagga-0.96.2-22.src.rpm and then something like this: rpm -i quagga-0.96.2-22.src.rpm cd /usr/src/packages/SPECS rpm -bb quagga.spec And when all works fine you find the rpm packages in ../RPMS/s390. In this case I noticed that we miss a macro so I had to comment out line 29 in the spec file (and remember that my package is missing some dependencies). That seemed enough to make it build (after I installed automake, texinfo and libread-devel - wouldn't it be nice if SuSE packages would have proper build requirements listed). Whether the thing works is another issue. The fact that SuSE provide it with the Intel version but not with s390 make one wonder.
I see S390 and S390x. What is the difference?The s390 is meant for a 32-bit distribution, and s390x is the 64-bit one.
