Good catch. Thanks for the hint. I've now changed the with_milter handling to use -DMILTER=0 and also made with_milter=yes the default: http://cvs.openpkg.org/chngview?cn=20922 > Another topic, I still have to manage some Ultra30 and Ultra60 servers > running Solaris 7. > Can you confirm that Openpkg won't work on Solaris 7 ? Well, at least we ourself _never_ tried OpenPKG on Solaris 7 because we either have Solaris 2.6 or already 8, 9 and 10 deployed. Solaris 7 was not out for very long, so we don't have it. But because OpenPKG still works on 2.6 (at least to some extend) and just fine under Solaris 8, I expect that it still works to some extend (at least the CORE packages and most of BASE) under Solaris 7. > Do you advise moving to > Solaris 8, 9 or 10 for such hardware ? Well, isn't Solaris 7 already end-of-life and no vendor support any longer available? Anyway, I personally would no longer run anything below Solaris 8 in a production environment and even Solaris 8 I personally would already upgrade to Solaris 9 if possible. > I also mentionned Openpkg to some admins still using RH 8 and 9. > Did some people set-up Openpkg on such old distros ? Yes, we had OpenPKG under both RedHat 8 and RedHat 9. But always keep in mind that OS support depends on the OpenPKG release version. Older versions usually run fine under older OS versions because for those they were done at the time of their release. Newer OpenPKG versions might still work fine under older OS versions, but because it was no longer made sure that all packages work for them, there is always a small number of packages expected which now fail to build and/or run under the old OS versions. > PS : BTW I'm using OpenPKG 2.2 on SuSE 9.2 x86. > No problem so far Well, SuSE versions 9.x is for what OpenPKG 2.2 was both intended and ported to. So it would be strange if it doesn't work there... ;-) Ralf S.
