Re: [Rlib-users] Rlib on Solaris

[<che...@bi...>]

Hi John,

I am not aware of any successful Solaris installs. We are looking into
making rlib Solaris compatible. But, if you want to try some patches
before we get to that,

bzero(dest, len) is just memset(dest, 0, len);

vasprintf is is used to create sprintf type functions. it is called only
in the rlogit function - which just logs errors and messages. You could
comment  out the content of this function so it is just:

rlogit(const gchar *fmt, ...) {
}

and then try again.
