I need to run ksh93 on Caldera 3.1.1. The pdksh that comes with 3.1.1 lacks features used in some test scripts that we want to run on Linux.
I downloaded the compiled ksh93 for Linux from AT&T, only to see that it uses glibc 2.3, which I do not have installed.
My question is, would I be able to simply make the glibc 2.3 binary
available for the program and have it run? I do not want to do a real
install of a new glibc as I expect it to be a potential problem. I know I can try and see, but I was curious if anyone had any warnings of
bits of wisdom to impart for this.
(I am also looking for the source on the AT&T site. It is mentioned as being available, but the link seems illusive.)
I never had any luck with compiling the AT&T version, so I used the binary that comes with Slackware. It runs just fine under Red Hat 7.3, and AFAIK is completely standards compliant with the KSH93 specs.
Have you considered trying it?
