Hi everybody,
I just subscribed to the CDE mailing list. I've been a CDE nut since the
90s. As such I would like to see the project move forward. The major
problem atm is, that CDE doesn't build properly anymore (under NetBSD) due
to the dependency on AST-KSH. I wonder, why still rely on a certain
"It's still maintained, but it's down at the moment."
I've heard that too often with FOSS lusers over the years, There has to be
a way of making CDE work without relying on a shell that's been outdated
since AIX 5. It might take a bit of work, but I'll start working on it.
Heck, even tcsh would be
I've successfully built the latest CDE revision on NetBSD, but the Build
instructions need some updates:
Section 2: Install Packages
===
Under NetBSD 7.0 the ast-ksh built is broken, however it can be installed
by issuing :
export PKG_PATH="
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsr
getting rid of libXp.
Cheers,
The Hippo.

Hi,
Made some minor corrections to Linux Build page to reflect changes
necessary to build in Ubuntu 14.04.4.
Ubuntu 16.04 currently doesn't build, for some reason dtinfo doesn't build.
Still investigating.
So far I could berify builds under the following systems:
NetBSD 6.1.5
NetBSD 7.0
FreeBS
Another small change to Linux build. Managed to build it under the all new
Ubuntu 16.04 now.

Moin,
There is one system left I'm checking out the build for - Linux From
Scratch. I'm building it right now (the system. Not CDE yet).
I have ten days of vacation coming up, I was thinking about what to do.
I'm completely useless at sitting around idly for more than two days. So I
was thinking
