1. Snapshot 23Feb98 under Irix5 --- INSTALLATION BROKEN!!!

   Andrew Martin <martin@biochemistry.ucl.ac.uk> — 1998-02-23T15:18:15Z

   OK, here are my experiences trying to install the latest snapshot (23Feb98)
   under Irix 5.3.
   
   In summary, installation is currently BROKEN!!!!!
   
   I shall wait till installation works properly before I try another regression
   test :-)

   Installation of Snapshot 23Feb98 under Irix 5.3
   ===============================================

   2. configure dies (!)
   ---------------------
   Running configure, dies with the following:
   
   checking whether time.h and sys/time.h may both be included... yes
   checking whether struct tm is in sys/time.h or time.h... time.h
   checking for int timezone... yes
   checking for union semun... yes
   Argument expected
   
   
   
   This occurs during the check for whether gcc requires -traditional
   when I have specified --with-compiler=cc in order to use the native
   IRIX cc compiler and not gcc. (If I opt to use gcc, then I don't
   have this problem...)
   
   NOTE this bug has been introduced SINCE THE LAST SNAPSHOT I tried
   on the 11th Feb
   
   
   
   3. My expected output files for Irix have not been incorporated in 
   .../src/test/regress/expected/ :-(
   ------------------------------------------------------------------
   
   
   
   4. gmake install fails for ecpg files
   -------------------------------------
   
   The ecpg files are using 
      install -c -m 755 
   to do the installation rather than
      $(INSTALL) $(INSTLOPTS)
   
   This applies to .../src/interfaces/ecpg/include/Makefile
   and             .../src/interfaces/ecpg/preproc/Makefile

   	Please investigate this one further and let me know what is
   required to fix it?
