| 42 | =head1 BUILDING PERL ON DG/UX
|
|---|
| 43 |
|
|---|
| 44 | =head2 Non-threaded Perl on DG/UX
|
|---|
| 45 |
|
|---|
| 46 | Just run ./Configure script from the top directory.
|
|---|
| 47 | Then give "make" to compile.
|
|---|
| 48 |
|
|---|
| 49 | =head2 Threaded Perl on DG/UX
|
|---|
| 50 |
|
|---|
| 51 | If you are using as compiler GCC-2.95.x rev(DG/UX)
|
|---|
| 52 | an easy solution for configuring perl in your DG/UX
|
|---|
| 53 | machine is to run the command:
|
|---|
| 54 |
|
|---|
| 55 | ./Configure -Dusethreads -Duseithreads -Dusedevel -des
|
|---|
| 56 |
|
|---|
| 57 | This will automatically accept all the defaults and
|
|---|
| 58 | in particular /usr/local/ as installation directory.
|
|---|
| 59 | Note that GCC-2.95.x rev(DG/UX) knows the switch
|
|---|
| 60 | -pthread which allows it to link correctly DG/UX's
|
|---|
| 61 | -lthread library.
|
|---|
| 62 |
|
|---|
| 63 | If you want to change the installation directory or
|
|---|
| 64 | have a standard DG/UX with C compiler GCC-2.7.2.x
|
|---|
| 65 | then you have no choice than to do an interactive
|
|---|
| 66 | build by issuing the command:
|
|---|
| 67 |
|
|---|
| 68 | ./Configure -Dusethreads -Duseithreads
|
|---|
| 69 |
|
|---|
| 70 | In particular with GCC-2.7.2.x accept all the defaults
|
|---|
| 71 | and *watch* out for the message:
|
|---|
| 72 |
|
|---|
| 73 | Any additional ld flags (NOT including libraries)? [ -pthread]
|
|---|
| 74 |
|
|---|
| 75 | Instead of -pthread put here -lthread. CGCC-2.7.2.x
|
|---|
| 76 | that comes with the DG/UX OS does NOT know the -pthread
|
|---|
| 77 | switch. So your build will fail if you choose the defaults.
|
|---|
| 78 | After configuration is done correctly give "make" to compile.
|
|---|
| 79 |
|
|---|
| 80 | =head2 Testing Perl on DG/UX
|
|---|
| 81 |
|
|---|
| 82 | Issuing a "make test" will run all the tests.
|
|---|
| 83 | If the test lib/ftmp-security gives you as a result
|
|---|
| 84 | something like
|
|---|
| 85 |
|
|---|
| 86 | lib/ftmp-security....File::Temp::_gettemp:
|
|---|
| 87 | Parent directory (/tmp/) is not safe (sticky bit not set
|
|---|
| 88 | when world writable?) at lib/ftmp-security.t line 100
|
|---|
| 89 |
|
|---|
| 90 | don't panic and just set the sticky bit in your /tmp
|
|---|
| 91 | directory by doing the following as root:
|
|---|
| 92 |
|
|---|
| 93 | cd /
|
|---|
| 94 | chmod +t /tmp (=set the sticky bit to /tmp).
|
|---|
| 95 |
|
|---|
| 96 | Then rerun the tests. This time all must be OK.
|
|---|
| 97 |
|
|---|
| 98 | =head2 Installing the built perl on DG/UX
|
|---|
| 99 |
|
|---|
| 100 | Run the command "make install"
