Lol, no, that is not how it works.
If you want some *BSD machines in the cfarm, donate hardware and time
to install and perhaps maintain those machines, or get s
For what it's worth, icu-project.org (benefiting many dependent projects on this library such as Node.js) makes use of GCC119 and the AIX build. This has allowed for porting work without having to otherwise have access to the platform. The non-IBMers on the team do not have their own AIX systems.

Continued mention of the need for nearly useless AIX cross platform

Because you posted in a thread about emacs on AIX.
Maybe you should discuss problems with GCC on FreeBSD on the GCC
mailing lists, not here.

The issue at this point is that other cfarm and mailing list users are
getting called "dumb" and "stupid". And with very little reasoning
other than loosely "we take what we can get" and again loosely "call
others dumb". I am not personally affected by this as I am confident
in my abilities. Howeve

Says the guy who waded into a thread about an OS he never uses,
complaining about thousands and thousands of dollars worth of gear
made available to anyone, no matter how dumb their attitude.

You guys really over-reacted about this.

Very few of us need more VMs. And by that logic one could test AIX
inside of a VM. I understand that corporate loyalty is important in
these strange times but no need to eschew logic.

I believe the problem is that very few of us actually want or need
AIX. It's nice of IBM to donate machines, but we need them running
linux, netbsd or freebsd. I don't advertise my work here, and nor
would I expect it to be pre-installed if I donated a machine. Why
should IBM be any different. Furt
The Emacs RPM is broken. The pre-built binaries for AIX are known to
have problems with libintl dependencies.

Hi Everyone,
I'd like to install emacs on GCC119/AIX.
I'm not familiar with AIX or installing into /opt/cfarm. In
particular, I'm not sure if AIX suffers the ridiculous runtime path
problems that plague Linux; and how to fix runtime path problems on
AIX if they exist.
