Hi Axelle,
There was a short discussion[1] on the maintainers mailing list. It
is possible that the absence of unrealircd in the catalog is
intentional, while the page on the web site is an inconsistency.
I've looked into building a new version of unrealircd. I've built
libtre, and attempted a compilation, but there is a blocking syntax
error, which breaks the compilation on both compilers (Solaris
Studio and GCC):
Hi Maciej, (and Ben)

It will require investigative work, so we have no way of quickly
upgrading the package. If you're interested in the old package, you
can download it by hand from oldpkgs[2].
Thanks for your answer. So far, I have been looking for other IRC
servers to install on Solaris, I am currently quite unsuccessful (always
a quirk or another that causes it not to compile easily).
If anybody has had any successful experience building an IRC server on
Solaris, I'd love to hear about it. It is certainly feasible, I am sure.
Just needs some more work ;)
Axelle
