Hi all,
I've built 7.1beta6 on a number of different HP-UX platforms (11.00 32
bit, 11.00 64 bit, 11i 32 bit).
1. On all these platforms 'make check' hung. Since that's not
critical to whether PostgreSQL works or not I worked around it by
using a different shell:
gmake SHELL=$HOME/bin/pdksh check
I'll look at this next week. If someone can confirm that
/usr/bin/sh works for make check on HP-UX 10.20 that would be
useful.
2. I saw two different sets of output for geometry.out. These seem to
relate to the processor level:
(a) on PA-RISC 1.1 some of the zero values are negative
(b) on PA-RISC 2.0 the negative zeros were produced as on PA-RISC
1.1, plus about three results varied in the least significant
digit.
The PA-RISC 2.0 values were identical on two platforms:
(i) PA8000 running 32 bit 11i
(ii) PA8500 running 64 bit 11.00
If these results are OK (I assumed they were for the purposes
of Vince's database, so I hope they are :-) then perhaps the
attached outputs can be added to the expected results and
resultmap updated for HP-UX 11?
Regards,
Giles
