#7 TrfCrypt Install Problem on Solaris

[Al Silverstein]

Environment:
Solaris 2.8
ActiveTcl 8.4.2 installed

Ran configure script with the following options:

--prefix=/usr/local/ActiveTcl
--enable-gcc

This failed because of the following:

configure: error: No tclsh found in PATH

I put in a couple of echo statements to print out the variable
of $ac_cv_path_tclsh and the value
as /usr/local/ActiveTcl/bin/tclsh8.3

I still couldn't figure out how it got 8.3. Anyway, I
hardcoded the
value to /usr/local/ActiveTcl/bin/tclsh8.4 and then it worked.
(Note, this happened on Linux also)

Then I ran make and there was a problem with the -KPIC
option. I needed to change this to -fPIC for Solaris

Next, I tried to run make install and had two problems
1. warning: no packages are currently loaded, nothing
can possibly match 'Trf' (This happens on both Linux and
Solaris) When I don't have the eprintf problem, I fixed this
problem by doing the following on tclsh8.4

% load /usr/local/ActiveTcl/lib/Trf2.1/libTrf2.1.so
% pkg_mkIndex -load Trf -
verbose /usr/local/ActiveTcl/lib/Trfcrypt ../libTrfcrypt2.0.so
*.tcl

2. problem with __eprintf

# make install

/bin/sh ./mkinstalldirs /usr/local/ActiveTcl/bin
/bin/sh ./mkinstalldirs /usr/local/ActiveTcl/lib/Trfcrypt

One more comment, ld is looking for the Trfstub2.1 library
in ../trf2.1p2 but with ActiveTcl 8.4.2 Trf is in a different place. I
imagine I didn't have a problem with this because I also have
Trfstub2.1 in that directory from an older install.

/usr/ccs/bin/ld -G -z text -o libTrfcrypt2.0.so loadman.o

Scratch the last commend regarding ld. I just used the following
configure options:

--with-trf
--with-trf-include-dir
--with-trf-lib-dir

Still have the same issues with "make install"
