Hi Riccardo,
I found that several people on the internet had a similar porblem.
It
appears a problem with "nm"
is there a way to ensure that
/opt/csw/sparc-sun-solaris2.9/bin/nm
is used instead of
/opt/csw/bin/nm
some receipe variable? Apart this I have no other clues.
I am afraid you need to look in the configure scripts and Makefiles
of
texinfo to answer that.
NM=gnm fixes "that" problem. However the texinfo problems are of
totally different nature.
I found mention of a backport patch in debian and found the actuall
commit in gnutls repository. With newer versions of perl some
expressions work unreliably depending on the order. I backported and
added the patch directly from the official repository.
compilation on both solaris 9 and 10 sparc are successful. Trying out
x86 now where I have the strange platform problem. I'm executing "mgar
platforms" right now.
I think it is better for the sake to update the solaris10 packages
too, even if in the past they built.
