Yes and no. I had to jump through some hoops to actually get a working 8.1 run too. Difficulties I encountered were: - Figuring out which the proper new get/set urls were fetch snapshots/upload results. - Issues with GTK1/2/Gnome linkage which caused segfaults. Which might not be Pike's fault; I never compile Pike with GTK/Gnome support, so I'm not sure my development system has a sane state of GTK development libraries. It took quite a while (not documented anywhere) before I figured out that I needed: --without-GTK --without-gnome --without-GTK2 (case sensitive!?) on configure to disable it. - ulimit -v 210MB on my development system results in not enough room to run the benchmarks or some of the testsuite tests. I ended up leaving ulimit -d 210MB in there, but taking out ulimit -v to leave that to unlimited. If anyone experiences those last two issues too, it is likely that those by itself already cause the build to fail. -- Stephen.
