-> COMPILING ENLIGHTENMENT WINDOW MANAGER FOR SOLARIS 7
->
-> I have a recent CVS download of Enlightenment (I have seen it work on
-> Linux).
->
-> In a delusional state I decided to try and get it working on Solaris. This
-> is where my story begins....
->
-> <CUT CUT>
->
-> I have removed my account of what I compiled and installed for the first 6
-> hours. Anyone who knows Solaris understands it comes installed with nothing.
->
-> Some of the packages included:
-> GCC compiler
-> GNU fileutils-4.0
-> GNU m4-1.4
-> freetype-1.3.1
-> jpeg-6b
-> libtiff-v3.4
-> libpng-1.0.1
-> zlib-1.1.2
-> libungif-3.0
-> glib-1.2.3
-> gtk+-1.2.3
-> gettext-0.10.35
-> automake-1.4
->
-> Anyway you ask how did the compile go.
-> Well everything compiled
-> Imlib
-> Fnlib
-> enlightenment
->
-> When I started enlightenment it stalled after the "loading enlightenment"
-> bar got to 100%
->
-> You should have seen my face change from extasy to horror. I also had to
-> power-cycle it to bring the machine back.
->
-> This is the only WARNING I got when I compiled Imlib and Fnlib. Has anyone
-> got Enlightenment working on Solaris before. OR maybe someone knows how to
-> make shared libraries so I don't get this warning.
->
-> ANY IDEAS!

basically it's saying it needs shared library dependancies (where a
shared lib can have shared lib deps for otherS) - and um.. i THINK
solaris does this... i have a solairs box behind me and E works... I'm
nto entirely sure whats wrong.. but if your machine hard-locka and
youcouldnt even ctrl+alt+backspace or get itn from the network and kill
X - then i think this si a matter that shoudl be referred to sun :)
