similar to: Building without perl

Hello. I just tried to download and build the 2.3.0.p1 (portable) release with Cygwin on an NT box. It fails to build because of the use of a perl script. Cygwin does not have Perl installed by default and to be honest it seems like a bit of a stretch to require perl to be able to build shh, that just makes it harder to build. I poked around and it seems like these files depend on perl:

It appears that "fixpaths" has "/usr/bin/perl" hard-coded in. This causes make to fail immediately after running configure.

For systems that don't have perl at /usr/bin/perl, fixpaths doesn't run. I've added a check in configure.in to find where perl is and use it to run fixpaths. Here's the patch: --- configure.in.orig Mon Dec 27 23:09:36 1999 +++ configure.in Tue Dec 28 10:16:05 1999 @@ -9,6 +9,7 @@ AC_PROG_RANLIB AC_PROG_INSTALL AC_CHECK_PROG(AR, ar, ar) +AC_CHECK_PROG(PERL, perl, perl)

I've attached a patch for openssh-SNAP-20001028 which fixes the following two problems: 1) I fixed fixpaths to complain instead of failing silently if it can't write the output file. 2) I changed log-server.c to use av0 as the first argument to openlog(). I also made sure it called openlog() before the TCP wrapper stuff, because libwrap calls syslog() and winds up using the

I'm in the process of installing openssh 2.5.1p2 and the make install step fails. I did the build without problems. Now when I attempt to do the make install it fails with the output below. Software build process should have to separate steps. A build step and an install step. The install step should not create or modify any files in the tree structure as this will fail when a root user is

Two small problems with 2.2.0p1 on BSD/OS 4.0.1, both invoving the internal entropy collector: 1) The ``ls'' commands in ssh_prng_cmds.in all use -n, which isn't valid on BSD/OS and thus caused them all to fail when fixprogs checked them. BSD/OS does, however, have a -T flag which gives complete timestamp information (month, day, year, hour, minute, and second), which seems like a

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this... the OpenSSH Mailing Lists page is a little ambiguous. I've tried to compile OpenSSH 3.0.1p1 & 3.0.2p1 on two different Solaris platforms, one running Solaris 8 and the other Solaris 9 beta. It configures fine, but the make dies: gcc -I/opt/include -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wno-uninitialized -I. -I. -I/opt/include -I/opt/include

Hi! I just run a test build of the latest CVS on HP-UX 10.20 and found two issues, both related to the new mdoc2man.pl support: - In Makefile.in, line 122, the construction $(MANPAGES): %.out: % is used. HP's "make" command does not understand this syntax (gmake does). - In configure, the first "perl" command in the PATH seems to be found. On HP-UX this is an

Hello, I'm new to rsync, and I'm confused about something. I was under the impression that it used some sort of diff function to save time & bandwidth when copying over files. I'm using it to backup files from one computer to another, and it works exactly as I thought it would, except that it seems to be copying entire files over when they've change rather than the

This to announce a test release of 2.1.0p1 before making it widely available. This release includes many fixes to problems reported over the last week. In particular: - spurious error and coredumps caused by the inbuilt entropy gathering - RSAref detection - Compilation fixes for Solaris and others It also contains (completely untested) support for compiling without RSA support. This may be

do you folks have a way of generating man pages in a format that the Solaris "man" command can use (apart from converting to plain text)?

Juan, I am running a Calling Card application on a Dell PowerEdge 2850 with Asterisk 1.0.7. Recording conversations I have seen on my server causes the processors to burn more than necessary so I would recommend what William from Signate recommended: " Consider saving recorded calls in a database on a separate server. It will be simpler to build a retrieval interface that does not
