I'm trying to compile openssh2.9p2 on Solaris8. I've got gcc2.95 libgcc3.0, zlib1.1.3, and openssl0.9.6 installed. When I try to run configure this is what I get: # ./configure loading cache ./config.cache checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... yes checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) is a cross-compiler... no checking whether we are using GNU C... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking host system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.8 checking whether byte ordering is bigendian... yes checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E checking for ranlib... : checking for a BSD compatible install... ./install-sh -c checking for ar... no checking for perl5... no checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl checking for ent... no checking for filepriv... no checking for bash... /usr/bin/bash checking for ksh... (cached) /usr/bin/bash checking for sh... (cached) /usr/bin/bash configure: error: *** 'ar' missing, please install or fix your $PATH *** I've tried to run through the configure script but I can't seem to find what the reference to ar means. Below is my environment.
