[OpenIndiana-discuss] Building Applications

2010-10-13 Thread russell
Hi, While OpenIndiana (OpenSolaris/Solaris) provide 32 and 64 bit libraries for building 64 bit applications. However if you want to include bindings to Perl for example, the version shipped with OpenIndiana is 32bit including it libraries. So, if you want to include Perl support in a 64bit a

Hi, After getting frustrated with running Firefox 31.3.0 crashing on OpenIndiana if it was left running for any length of time. I did start the process of building Firefox v38.0.1. As a result of this I found a couple of things when attempting to do this, the pulseaudio library was not install

Hi Alasdair, From a personal perspective I would prefer if everything was 64bit and 32bit libraries were provided for backward compatibility. I see no reason to provide 32bit binaries if 64bit versions can be created, 64bit x86 chips have been available since 2003, virtually all the CPUs on

And please make sure that 32-bit apps get built largefile-aware. There are enough of them that aren't, that it's a nuisance sometimes. ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openi
