Hi all,
Does anyone know the status of the AIX and HPUX ports of CDE? Does
anyone have the hardware and software to test them on?
No, but as they are both still in "business", I think we should leave
them alone unless they are specifically breaking something.
Also, requiring ksh to build is a bit of a fault point for many users,
especially the ones on BSDs, how difficult would it be to remove the
requirement for ksh during the build process, using sh instead, and then
when everything is build, use dtksh for installation?
IIRC, dtksh/ksh actually requires ksh to build. I have no problem with
not requiring that ksh be available in order to build CDE.
I tried it once many years ago and gave up. I think dtksh was the main
problem and it was going to be difficult/time consuming to disentangle.
Feel free to investigate though :)
