we try to build the Tex Live package on the FreeBSD kernel arch included in Debian. The build fails, wenn the ICU lib is compiled:[SNIP] The relevant code block is U_CAPI const char *udbg_getPlatform(void) { #if U_PLATFORM_HAS_WIN32_API return "Windows"; #elif U_PLATFORM == U_PF_UNKNOWN return "unknown" #else return "Other (POSIX-like)"; #endif } After appending an ; after 'return "unknown"' at least I can compile the lib. Please evaluate.
Hi Hilmar, Thanks for the report and patch (applied in TL SVN r25616). I have also filed an ICU bug report: http://bugs.icu-project.org/trac/ticket/9196 I think the real problem is that U_PLATFORM for your FreeBSD is determined as U_PF_UNKNOWN and not as U_PF_BSD. Please have a look at the code in common/unicode/platform.h and try to find out why this fails. I assume #elif defined(BSD) is insufficient and should also test for alternatives such as __BSD and/or __BSD__ or some such. Perhaps you can add a comment to #9196 and tell them how that test should be modified. Note: In icu-4.6 as used for TL2011 that was tested in configure as follows: case "${host}" in *-*-solaris*) platform=U_SOLARIS ;; *-*-linux*|*-*-gnu|*-*-k*bsd*-gnu|*-*-kopensolaris*-gnu) platform=U_LINUX ;; *-*-*bsd*|*-*-dragonfly*) platform=U_BSD ;; *-*-aix*) platform=U_AIX ;; ....... *) platform=U_UNKNOWN_PLATFORM ;; esac so platform was either U_LINUX or U_BSD.
