I'm trying to compile olvwm(1), v4.4, for FreeBSD 4.6 on an i386 box. It's looking for sys/byteorder.h and not finding it.
My research indicates that linking sys/byteorder.h to netinet/in.h doesn't work. (It was a workaround suggested on one of the URLs I read.) I understand the issues being addressed here - they are fundamental, big-endian versus little-endian architectures. However, I do not normally have the time and leisure to explore such interesting topics (unemployment, properly treated, can be the equivalent of what, in more scholastic environments, are referred to as 'going on sabbatical' :-); I am trying to make effective use of this precious period of free study. For what it's worth, xview and xview-ports are both installed without problems; I have olwm(1), I just want olvwm(1), it's my preferred 'vwm, very useful for keeping work segmented onto different desktops according to system or window role (development servers on *this* desktop, production servers on *that* desktop, network analysis tools on *these* three desktops, email over here, and HTTP clients on these four desktops at the bottom, for instance - stretch as needed). I'm going to use my buddy find(1) to search for files containing strings referencing 'endian' and ending in '.h' (or '.c', to see what's being included, if my first efforts fail), and I haven't given up on figuring this out myself, but thought I'd inquire of others whom might face these issues on a daily, rather than decade-periodic, basis, in the hopes that I'd save myself a few hours (or days), and maybe learn something, too.
