Re: more binaries



Alex,

thank you very much. I have tried just standalone mc 
files for AIX and Solaris, they work great. I think,
that's a great advantage for people working on commercial
UNIXes without any control of system installation and
configuration.

Sincerely,
Alex

Hi Pavel,

I built mc 4.6.0 binaries for HP-UX (11, 11i ),  AIX (4.3.3, 5L) ,
Solaris
2.8 (Sparc ).
They are linked with glib statically.


They are available:

ftp://ftp.i2.com/outgoing/DM_builds/mc-4.6.0-HP-UX.zip
ftp://ftp.i2.com/outgoing/DM_builds/mc-4.6.0-AIX.zip
ftp://ftp.i2.com/outgoing/DM_builds/mc-4.6.0-SunOS.zip

Don't try to navigate to these binaries, you must just take the exact
pathnames and download them.

Pavel, Alex,

thank you very much for making things clear.
I am happy, that started this small discussion.
Is it possible to make changes in the INSTALL
file to underline how to:
1) link glib statically;
2) do everything without root privileges.

Sincerely,
Alex

Hi Pavel,

Would you be interested in 4.6.0 binaries for Solaris, HP-UX

AIX?

Yes.

Is it better to use 4.6.0 sources or latest snapshot?

4.6.0 is better.

Could you please give suggested set of configure options?

--with-screen=mcslang to avoid dependency on S-Lang library.

It would be nice to compile against static glib, but it needs to
be
done
manually.  For example, move shared glib library temporarily to
some
other
place.  Another approach is to redefine GLIB_LIBS, e.g.

make GLIB_LIBS=/usr/local/lib/libglib.a

Do you want builds with debug info or stripped?

Stripped and optimized.  That's the default.

I would suggest zip format for packaging because it is
available on
all
platforms and doesn't require root access for installing.

OK.  I haven't used commercial UNIX for a long time.  I thought
packages
are preferred by users.  If they are not, it's fine to use zip or
tar.Z.
