1$NetBSD: README,v 1.12 2005/04/05 00:21:22 jmc Exp $ 2 3Special notes for cross-hosting a NetBSD build on certain platforms. 4Only those platforms which have been tested to complete a "build.sh" run 5are listed. 6 7All hosts must have a POSIX compatible sh. /bin/sh is assumed unless 8otherwise set. This can be overridden by setting HOST_SH in the environment. 9 10In addition all hosts must provide the following local tools: 11 12gzip 13 14===== 15 16NetBSD: 17 18* _NETBSD_SOURCE is *not* to be defined/pulled in during compat/tools builds. 19 compat_defs.h will error out if it finds it defined. 20 21HP-UX: 22 23* zlib must be available. 24 This will be fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat. 25 26===== 27 28LINUX: 29 30* Tested on RedHat Linux 7.1 (i386). 31 Tested on RedHat Linux 7.3 (i686) on 16 Sep 2002. Requires "LANG=C" 32 in the environment. 33 34* Tested on Redhat Linux 8.0 (i686) in Fall 2003. Requires no special settings. 35 36* Tested on Redhat ES3 and AS3 in spring of 2004. Requires no special settings. 37 38* The gcc (and libstdc++, if needed) package must be installed, along 39 with the typical system development packages (glibc-devel, etc.). 40 41* The ncurses-devel package must be installed (for nbinfo). 42 43* The zlib and zlib-devel packages must be installed. This will be 44 fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat. 45 46===== 47 48MACOS 49 Requires a case sensitive filesystem such as UFS 50 51* Tested on 10.2.8 with Dec 2002 Developer Tools 52 - may require a fix to /usr/bin/join, netbsd's join should work fine 53* Tested on 10.3 with xcode 1.5 54 - compiles fine out of the box 55 56===== 57 58NETBSD (earlier releases): 59 60* Tested on NetBSD 1.5.2 (machine-independently). 61 62* Should need no special setup. 63 64===== 65 66SOLARIS: 67 68* Tested on Solaris/x86 8 (5.8) with gcc 2.95.2 and Solaris/sparc 8 (5.8) 69 with gcc 3.2 (not yet tested with SUNWspro). 70 71* $HOST_CC needs to be set properly (for gcc, it should be set to "gcc", 72 otherwise the improper /usr/ucb/cc may be invoked by accident). 73 74* The SUNWzlib package (or a built version of zlib visible to $HOST_CC, 75 such as SMCzlib from sunfreeware.com) must be installed. This will be 76 fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat. 77 78* Needs the following paths, in this order, in $PATH: 79 80 /usr/xpg4/bin 81 /usr/ccs/bin 82 <path to host C and C++ compilers> 83 /usr/bin 84 85 /usr/ucb may optionally be placed before /usr/bin, per your preference, 86 but /usr/ucb *MUST NOT* be before /usr/ccs/bin or before the path to 87 the host C and C++ compilers. 88
