- Yes, I just compiled Elm 2.4 PL11 on 386BSD. Here's the tips:
-
- 1. /bin/sh isn't yet suitable to compile Elm. You must use bash instead,
- which comes with the system. Copy it into /bin/sh. (I'd suggest leaving
- it there permanently).
-
- 2. Edit lib/opt_utils.c around line #205
-
- old: #if defined(BSD) && !defined(_POSIX_SOURCE)
- new: #if defined(BSD) && !defined(_POSIX_SOURCE) && !defined(BSD386)
-
- 3. Run the Configure program to:
- Use "flock" for file locking
- Use these for the optional cc flags: -traditional -DBSD386
-
- At the end of the Configure script you have the opportunity to
- escape to edit config.sh. Type: !vi config.sh
- and change "d_sigaction" to say "undef".
-
- 4. Type "make" and away you go.
