Sender: owner-freebsd-alpha@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I've been having some fun compiling FreeBSD ports on a mostly NetBSD system and ran into a problem compiling xemacs20, from what I see from NetBSD they've never made a package of it (or any other alpha ports) so I was wondering if anyone has succeeded. Otherwise, I'm going to see what I can do as foreboding as it looks. Problem I ran into is in unexalpha.c, it calls some header files, "filehdr.h, aouthdr.h, scnhdr.h, and syms.h" that are probably found on OSF but I've never heard of. unexfreebsd.c probably can't e expected to work so maybe if I grab these files from an OSF system it will work? Does that sound too easy? ;) Maybe we can also begin to work on which ports work properly under alpha, albiet some packages are far harder to give a comprehensive test to. So far I can only report that tcsh compiles and installs fine. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
