After 40+ hours of work - 30 of which is because I'm a novice in the
compiling / linking / Solaris world - I *THINK* it's working!!!  It
finally passed the configure and gmake process and is running, albeit
not seeing much traffic yet.

 

Anyway, I ended up having to make several tweaks to Makefile, configure,
manually move some files around, etc.  Also:

 

Tried three different compilers, changed my paths several times to get
different version of ld and other utils.  Downgraded rrd so I didn't
have to deal with pango and another 100 dependencies...  Also went back
to all utils and compilers from SunFreeWare.  Small stuff I got source
and then figured out packages were already there - so I got those!

 

Once I verify this is really working and I relieve some stress, I'll try
to doc this stuff so it can either be streamlined / fixed by the
development team or at least someone has a starting place so they don't
beat their head against the wall (table, floor, chairs, window, etc.)
like I have been.  Someone that knew what they were doing could probably
fix this stuff in a couple hours!  I wish I could say I learned a lot -
but I only learned a little.

 

Anyone that knows of a good reference for beginners on the whole
config/make/compile/link process - PLEASE let me know!  Maybe something
like "GCC for Dummies?"

 

TIA!

 

Gary
