Hi all!
I'm having trouble building the latest stable on AIX 5.1. My env is as follows:
Relevant GNU tools:
autoconf-2.58-1.aix5.1.noarch.rpm
automake-1.7.9-1.aix5.1.noarch.rpm
binutils-2.14-3.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
bison-1.875-2.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
flex-2.5.4a-6.aix4.3.ppc.rpm
gcc-3.3.2-4.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
libtool-1.5-2.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
m4-1.4.1-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
make-3.80-1.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
patch-2.5.4-4.aix4.3.ppc.rpm
zlib-1.2.1-2.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
zlib-devel-1.2.1-2.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
PATH:
/opt/freeware/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/etc:/usr/sbin:/usr/ucb:/usr1/acct/jonathan/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/sbin:.
Compiler Flags:
CC=gcc
CFLAGS="-mcpu=powerpc -Wa,-many"
CXX=gcc
CXXFLAGS="-mcpu=powerpc -Wa,-many -felide-constructors -fno-exceptions
-fno-rtti"
export CC CXX CFLAGS CXXFLAGS
Configure directives:
./configure \
--prefix=/usr2/tools/mysql \
--enable-assembler \
--with-big-tables \
--with-low-memory \
--with-openssl=/usr2/tools/openssl \
--without-extra-tools \
--without-docs \
--without-bench \
--enable-local-infile
Results in the following error:
...
checking term.h usability... no
checking term.h presence... yes
configure: WARNING: term.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: term.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: term.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: term.h: section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: term.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result

configure: WARNING: ## ------------------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING: ## Report this to the AC_PACKAGE_NAME lists. ##
configure: WARNING: ## ------------------------------------------ ##

...
config.log has this to say on that:
...

...
If I search for ''bool'' in the include files referenced in the configure
test, I only get:
sys/types.h:typedef int boolean_t;
Type bool does appear to be defined in curses.h, which is not used in the
term.h test.
Compiling stops with:
...
if gcc -DUNDEF_THREADS_HACK -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DNO_KILL_INTR -I. -I. -I../..
-I../../include -I./../.. -I.. -O3 -DDBUG_OFF -mcpu=powerpc -Wa,-many
-MT term.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/term.Tpo" -c -o term.o term.c; \
then mv -f ".deps/term.Tpo" ".deps/term.Po"; else rm -f ".deps/term.Tpo";
exit 1; fi

In config.h, HAVE_CURSES_H, HAVE_TERMCAP_H and HAVE_TERM_H are all defined
and set to 1.
I tried removing HAVE_TERM_H, but curses.h just includes it anyway.
If I #undef HAVE_TERMCAP_H and rerun make, then it stops at:
...
gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1plus': No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [my_new.o] Error 1

I then did a make distclean, changed CXX from gcc to g++, reran configure and
make. This time I got as far as the link stage, where I got a rash of
undefined OpenSSL symbols. I only have static openssl libs, plus they're
64-bit, so I'm currently a) rebuilding openssl to include shared libs and b)
adding the right option to build mysql in 64-bit mode. I will see if I get
further.
As of now, I believe my Qs are:
1. What is the correct usage of curses, term and termcap? Which do I need?
And why don't the MySQL folks run into this problem - what's their AIX 5.1
environment like that gives them a smooth compilation?
2. The docs say that using CXX=gcc (to use gcc as a c++ compiler) is
preferable. Why does it seem to fail for me, forcing me to using the true
g++ compiler?
Many thanks!
