[OctDev] octave-forge on solaris 8
|

I hope this is the proper place for this...
I am trying to build octave-forge on a solaris 8 system. I have never
done this before, so I'm not sure what to expect so I have a few
questions. My first question, is that the version of octave I'm using
is 2.1.71 while the version of octave-forge is octave-forge-2005.06.13.
Is this a bad idea? I didn't realize the version mismatch until after
I installed 2.1.71 and I would rather not redo the 9+ hour build
(octave and octave-forge) if I don't have to.
Doing a
./configure --prefix=/opt/sfw
gmake -k
Seemed to work, but there were a few ld errors along the way. I guess
that's what the -k is for. However doing a
gmake check
gave me some problems. I did some searching and found that there were
some problems with bash specific shell scripts. The admin/mktests.sh
and admin/run_forge scripts do need bash not sh to run. Also,
admin/mktests.sh calls grep -E. The -E is not a valid switch for
/usr/bin/grep for solaris 8. So either the script needs to call
/usr/xpg4/bin/grep, or it needs to call egrep. After fixing that I was
able to run the check. There were a lot of failed tests and the check
eventually errored out (See below. I can send the fntests.log to
anybody who is interested.). Is this normal, because octave builds and
tests very cleanly on this system?
I then did a
gmake install
This also gave me some errors since the install scripts call grep -q.
Again, -q is not a valid switch for /usr/bin/grep.
After fixing that, when I started up octave I got the following errors:
error: `dispatch' undefined near line 2 column 1
error: near line 2 of file
`/opt/sfw/share/octave/2.1.71/site/m/octave-forge/comm//PKG_ADD'
error: source: error sourcing file
`/opt/sfw/share/octave/2.1.71/site/m/octave-forge/comm//PKG_ADD'
I then took the advice of the install script and uninstalled
octave-forge. There are some functions in octave-forge that I need
access to, but I am having problems installing it. Has anybody gotten
this to work on a solaris 8 machine? Should I make sure that the
versions match and then try everything from scratch? Thanks for any
pointers.
