- I had a similar problem... It took a little tweaking on the conf.h
- file, but basically I took this approach --- I went ahead and ran the
- Configure script (against all better advice!) and then hand edited the
- resulting conf.h to bring in back to normal (expr munges it up pretty good!!)
- and then I set the definition of HAVE_SIGSETJMP, HAVE_SIGACTION,
- HAVE_SIGPROCMASK, and HAVE_SIGBLOCK to 0 ... uucico runs as expected now...
- I'm not sure if it's only one of those functions that causes the problem,
- or a combination of any 2 or 3 of them, all I know is that's how I got
- mine to work...
-
- Hope this helps, and have a good day...
-
- PS: you also have to fix the Makefile after running the Configure script,
- or just save your current one and put it back when the Configure script
- is through...
