Guido,

You are quite right hpoj does not build with parallel port support on sparc:
http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?&pkg=3Dhpoj&ver=3D0.91-2&arch=3Dsparc&st=
amp=3D1072845060&file=3Dlog&as=3Draw

Have a look at http://bugs.debian.org/116772. The upstream hpoj configure=20
script expressly disables parallel support if sys/io.h isn't available.

Without io.h I doubt that hpoj can support parallel port operation (but I=20
could be wrong), how do you propose that hpoj can access the parallel port =
on=20
these architectures without io.h?
