I am sysadm'ing a mixed cluster of pc/linux, sparc/solaris and dec/osf
computers. I have installed successfully aspell on linux and suns, but I
could not figure how to install it on DEC systems. I still had mail
messages exchanged with the author of aspell in the past. uname -a shows:
OSF1 axcdf4.pd.infn.it V4.0 878 alpha alpha
1) I configured aspell with
./configure alpha-dec-osf --prefix=/opt/gnu --with-gcc
and ran make; the mangled names are too long for Digital's assembler (I
remind you that GNU assembler and linker have NOT been ported to 64 bit
architectures, and that I am forced to use Digital assembler and
linker). The output from ./configure and make are in attachments in
the first two files.
2) I have now a license for Kuck and Associates Inc. (KAI) compiler; I
have then tried:
make distclean
CC=gcc CCC=KCC ./configure alpha-dec-osf --prefix=/opt/gnu
make
BUT your C++ is not compliant to the Standard. You are actually using
namespaces for YOUR software, but you are ignoring that library symbols
also use namespaces, and live in namespace std; so that I got an error
in the very first procedure compiled. Inserting a statement "using
namespace std;" in that procedure makes it compile successfully; but I
do not want to manually edit all of your source files to insert such a
statement (that is, indeed, a deprecated practice). Configure and make
output are in attachment in the files three and four.
Do I have to give up and to tell my users to resort on linux/solaris in
order to spell-check their files, or do you have other suggestions?
