No, the bootstrapping package named "openpkg" never included GNU make -- not in 1.0 nor in any -CURRENT version. > 2. Are there any plans for Os X / Darwin support? Sure, as long as we have a machine available for porting. Unfortunately, currently we have no PowerPC box available where we can setup MacOS X / Darwin, hence we cannot do anything ourself here. > The bootstrap procedure > seems to work but the bootstrap package fails to install because the platform is > identified as "power macintosh" and the space breaks the script. What's the > proper fix here? Are there any hooks for munging/translating uname's output? With 1.1.0 the bootstrap package's vendor parts use a common config.guess/config.sub script. It is part of the package. All you have to do is to fix your platform support there and this way all parts of the bootstrap packaging should identify your platform correctly. But make sure that you also forward your changes to the GNU people to make sure your changes are not lost. If you show me the output of $ uname -a $ uname -m $ uname -s $ uname -r I can look for you into config.guess and try to help you... Ralf S.
