Build on OpenBSD 6.1 fails

[James Deagle]

Hi all,

I've been trying build CDE on OpenBSD 6.1, and have been following the directions precisely (for OpenBSD 6.0+), but it stops after almost seven minutes with the following errors:

g++ -c -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wno-unused -Wno-write-strings -Wno-switch  -I. -I../../include -I../../include/utils -I../../../../lib -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/local/include -I../../../.. -I../../../../exports/include -I/usr/local/include -I../../../../imports/x11/include  -DCSRG_BASED -DANSICPP -DMULTIBYTE -DNLS16  -DOSMAJORVERSION=6 -DOSMINORVERSION=1   -DHAS_VFORK -DDL_NOT_DYNAMIC -DUSE_SOCKSTREAM  Session.C

Please let me know if there are any remedies or workarounds based on the above, or if you need to see the entire build script to know.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Cheers,
James
