Hi,
I have been keeping my eye on openpkg for a while, and I now have an
opportunity to deploy it. I tried to bootstrap from source openpkg-1.1.1
on a Solaris 8 machine on which someone else had installed gcc 2.95.2 in
/usr/local/bin (from sunfreeware.com I think).
Using the recent rsync example from SysAdmin mag as a mini-tutorial of
sorts, I proceeded as far as the installation of openpkg-1.1.1 into
/usr/local/opkg via the openpkg-1.1.1-1.1.1.sparc64-solaris2.8-ulo.sh
script that was created by openpkg-1.1.1-1.1.1.src.sh
Beyond that, when I tried to build from the src.rpm of rsync, it appeared
that rpm/libtool insisted on using 'cc'. I tried re-doing everything
without /usr/ucb in my PATH, but it still croaked.
Here's an example (/usr/local/opkg/bin and /usr/local/bin are in my PATH):
------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------------
The openpkg handbook mentions this:
"There exist some exceptions to these requirements. Installation of
OpenPKG on Debian Linux will fail unless GNU gettext and libpam0g-dev are
installed. Also, to later build packages like jdk-sun, the library
compat-libstdc++ must exist. Particular caution goes to Solaris users who
may find a cc command on a freshly installed system to be nothing more
than a useless wrapper script."
Unfortunately, this didn't help 8-( The useless /usr/ucb/cc is commonly
known amongst admins at my site, which is why this machine had gcc
installed. I was hoping for some workaround ...
After some trial and error, I finally found the ...etc/openpkg/rpmmacros
file which I edited to change:
%l_cc %{l_tool_locate cc}
to:
%l_cc /usr/local/bin/gcc
I was then able to compile make, then gcc-3.2 from src.rpm files at
ftp.openpkg.org. After that, I reverted the above change in rpmmacros to
the original, and I was able to build rsync (libtool picked up
/usr/local/opkg/bin/cc, which seems to be a hard link to the same
binary as /usr/local/opkg/bin/gcc).
So,
- is there a better way to do this?
- Could I have simply symlink'd /usr/local/opkg/bin/cc to
/usr/local/bin/gcc ?
- is there a 'from source' tutorial or other docs that I should've
read or should read?
Thanks,
