Now you got me curious! I had to try it right away; maybe a bit early? I did a
‘make’ in the ‘src’ folder . . .
$ make
Package libffi was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libffi.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'libffi' found
lib.c:7:35: warning: format specifies type 'unsigned long' but the argument has
type 'int64_t'
(aka 'long long') [-Wformat]
fprintf(stderr, "%s %lX\n", s, n);

OK, I see there are things that I may have to provide.

I noticed that there’s a mail link to me on the
https://software-lab.de/down.html <https://software-lab.de/down.html> page. You
may change my mail address there to jon.klei...@icloud.com
<mailto:jon.klei...@icloud.com>. And the two file links there (gl.tgz and
china.tgz) will probably go 404 in a few months. I don’t work for uio.no any
longer, and I plan to retire completely this summer.
