Hi Tzafrir,
It seems that the project is slowly but surely getting on the right track.
Here are some minor corrections. However there are some small annoyances
when trying to compile on Solaris:
1) biditext.in still contained some export var=name constructs (with
LD_PRELOAD). I have attached a fixed version to this message.
2) After ./configure is run, when trying to run
gmake PREFIX=/tmp/r2l-install
the compilation will abort at a certain stage because install-sh is not
found.
If, after running configure, I modify the last line of
r2l-0.9.4/src/refreshd/src/make.defs
from:
INSTALL=../../.././install-sh -c
to:
INSTALL=../../../../install-sh -c
everything seems to compile OK. So I think the problem is in configure
when it sets up the INSTALL= line.
3) Once again the annoying reminder that on Solaris the
ABSTRACT_UNIX_SOCKET_ADDRESSES
macro should *not* be defined, otherwise refreshd will not run.
I think that a solution would be to place the macro definition under a
conditional compilation. ./configure should figure out that it is running
on a non-Linux platform and make sure the macro definition should not be
compiled.
Best regards,
Emil
