Well, this is a plugin for Netscape, and (unless I'm mistaken) *must* be in aout format, or will ELF plugins work with Netscape??? -- Conrad Sabatier [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

Building aout ports in -current
I've been notified that one of the ports I'm responsible for, xswallow, will no longer build under -current. Here's a snip from the build log: ===> Building for xswallow-1.0.18 cd /tmp/a/ports/www/xswallow/work/xswallow/xswallow && cc -O -pipe -o xswallow.so -aout -shared -nostdlib -DXP_UNIX -I../include -I/usr/X11R6/include -L/usr/lib/compat/aout -lgcc UnixShell.c stubs.c as: could not exec aout/as in /usr/libexec: No such file or directory UnixShell.c: In function `readEntries2': UnixShell.c:498: output pipe has been closed cpp0: output pipe has been closed as: could not exec aout/as in /usr/libexec: No such file or directory stubs.c:15: output pipe has been closed *** Error code 1 Stop in /a/ports/www/xswallow. *** Error code 1 Is it no longer possible to build aout binaries in -current, or am I simply using the wrong approach here? Admittedly, I did employ a rather "ad hoc" method to get this package to compile, and up until now it's worked just fine. Any info that might help will be greatly appreciated. -- Conrad Sabatier [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
