4.3-030 builds and runs fine under HP-UX 11.31 and 11.23 (after some very small edits) but fails HP-UX 11.11, 11.00 and 10.20
The first reason is the use of C++ style comments in the source. The fix is easy. Just use plain ANSI comments. Old(er) ANSI C-compilers do NOT recognize // as command (an IMHO they should not) The three files that ought to be fixed are lib/readline/colors.h lib/readline/colors.h lib/readline/parse-colors.c The next issue is harder to fix. These three OS's do not seem to have easy detectable wide-char support, which ends up in this failure: cc -L./builtins -L./lib/readline -L./lib/readline -L./lib/glob -L./lib/tilde -L./lib/malloc -L./lib/sh -L/pro/local/lib -s -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/lib/X11R6 -L/usr/contrib/X11R6/lib -Ae -z +Z -AC99 -O2 -I/pro/local/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include/X11R6 -I/usr/local/X11R6/include -I/usr/contrib/X11R6/include -o bash shell.o eval.o y.tab.o general.o make_cmd.o print_cmd.o dispose_cmd.o execute_cmd.o variables.o copy_cmd.o error.o expr.o flags.o jobs.o subst.o hashcmd.o hashlib.o mailcheck.o trap.o input.o unwind_prot.o pathexp.o sig.o test.o version.o alias.o array.o arrayfunc.o assoc.o braces.o bracecomp.o bashhist.o bashline.o siglist.o list.o stringlib.o locale.o findcmd.o redir.o pcomplete.o pcomplib.o syntax.o xmalloc.o -lbuiltins -lglob -lsh -lreadline -lhistory -ltermcap -ltilde -lmalloc /pro/local/lib/libintl.a /pro/local/lib/libiconv.a /pro/local/lib/libiconv.a /usr/ccs/bin/ld: Unsatisfied symbols: is_basic (first referenced in ./lib/sh/libsh.a(casemod.o)) (code) The last issue is building 64bit version on 11.11: ld: Unsatisfied symbol "__strtoull" in file ./builtins/libbuiltins.a[printf.o] ld: Unsatisfied symbol "__strtoll" in file general.o as on 64bit build strtoull does not exist, as strtoul already *is* strtoull (likewise for strtoll vs strtol) -- H.Merijn Brand http://tux.nl Perl Monger http://amsterdam.pm.org/ using perl5.00307 .. 5.21 porting perl5 on HP-UX, AIX, and openSUSE http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/ http://www.test-smoke.org/ http://qa.perl.org http://www.goldmark.org/jeff/stupid-disclaimers/
