Hi Mark,
hm - do you have the possibility to build Omni on AIX 4.3.3? I can give
you all information about used software components (like in my first mail).
I think, not many people have tryed to build Omni on AIX - when you look
at "make install_local" (or similar) you see some generated changes at
/etc/ld.conf - a file which does exist on Linux but not on AIX (the AIX
linker /bin/ld uses as far as I know only the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable).
And as I reported there are other problems:
- shared libraries are build but not installed
- some includes have to be added to the source files
I'm sorry, but I'm not a software developer - my knowlege ends now...
Perhaps it is of interest for the project team to stabilize the code for
building on AIX - both, Omni and AIX, are IBM "projects".
All I can do is to be your beta tester - and that I'm willed to be!
Priority for me would be 4.3.3 release because one of our customer - who
uses now ESP Print Pro + ESP Ghostscipt + Foomatic - must stay at 4.3.3
and can't change to 5.1/5.2 because of other restrictions (it's a small
company with a single system which serves some database driven
application services and things like Samba, Printing, Intranet...). But
I have also testsystems here in my office for doing builds on newer AIX
releases...
Please tell me your opinion!
Regards,
Gottfried
