I'm afraid you'll have to get up to speed with them in order to do reasonable development in this area. You don't have to port the autotools to NSK(OSS); just run them on a GNU/Linux host, do a "make dist" and then unpackage the tar image on NSK(OSS). > Anyway, this got me as far as sha512.c where the compiler croaked with: Fundamentally the problem is that sha512 assumes a 64-bit unsigned integer type, and you don't have one. I guess the best way to fix this is to change coreutils to not build sha512 on hosts that don't have uint64_t. > (So, yes... "yike"...

I don't know what you mean by "NTP", but we're always interested in ports to real hosts, and Tandem/NSK OSS qualifies as a real host in my book. The thread is still live on <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2006-10/msg00062.html>, if that's what you mean. > On an unrelated note, when running configure, I get these two header > compilation failures: > > ... > configure: WARNING: sys/statvfs.h: present but cannot be compiled > ... > configure: WARNING: sys/ioctl.h: present but cannot be compiled > ... This indicates that our tests for sys/ioctl.h and sys/statvfs.h are neglecting to include some prerequisite include files. I cannot reproduce the problem with CVS coreutils on Solaris 10 (using Sun C 5.8), so I guess the problem is fixed now. If not, you'll have to send us more info. > My guess, however, is that this is a case of > needing _TANDEM_SOURCE defined ala > http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?17172, but since this would need to be > changed in autoconf I'm not sure what, if anything, should or could be > done. Can you give more information about this? What is _TANDEM_SOURCE used for? You can check the files under /usr/include to find out. > For statvfs.h: > "/usr/include/sys/statvfs.h", line 50: error(114): identifier "u_long" > is undefined What include file is supposed to define u_long? Use "grep -r u_long /usr/include" to find out. Similary for ioctl.h. The patch you sent was incomplete. I'm afraid I didn't really look at it much; instead, I constructed another patch from first principles, which I'll send in two later emails. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
