Hi all,
it is not there the libreadline development package for the hurd ?
If it isn't there, how has been bash built ?

The chart that Marcus sent us showing the growth in mailing list

I posted this on help-hurd a day or two ago but haven't had
any repsonses. Sorry if this is a repost for some of you
who are subscribed to that list also.

Most of the documentation at Utah and CMU is pretty old.

Hello,
I'm trying to compile oskit-mach. Few months ago it was no problem. But now
I'm not able to compile it properly:

Hi all,
when doing an 'ls /dev', hurd starts automatically each transator of
each device file. Why?
This produces a delay before the directory contents is shown.
Thanks.

Hi,
In order to compiling a recent checkout of gnumach I had to remove
gnumach/linux/src/arch/i386/lib/delay.S and use the delay.c from
linux-2.2.12 with a small change (remove "current_cpu_data" structure). I
guess the "__delay(unsigned long loops)" function is not used so it could be

Hi!
I just made up a cross-compiler for the HURD, but the linker has minor
problems:
Given the minimal C program:
int main() { return(0); }
-
and this command line:
~$ i586-pc-gnu-gcc test.c
I get this output:
[blah bloh]
/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-gnu/2.96/collect2 -m
