First the original message:
---------
Has anyone gotten rsync2.5.5 to compile on v5.1a?
If so, what did you do? TIA
While trying to compile rsync2.5.5 on an alpha running 5.1a pk1
( a 1000A and a DS20E )
I get the following error:
cc: Error: lib/getaddrinfo.c, line 180: In this statement, "EAI_MAX" is not
declared. (undeclared)
It compiles fine on a 4100 running v40F.
---------------------
Got replies from
Richard Fairfield who sent me his notes on his successful install.
-- and a couple emails answering questions
Randy Rodgers
Paul Sand
Bob Marcan who sent me a link to his rpm which I must opt not to use.
Thanks much to all of you
The trick that worked for them was to cd to the directory
and run patch -p1 < patches/rsync_zoong_tru64.diff
So I went out and got a new download from www.rsync.org
put it in /opt/rsync
ran gunzip -c rsync-2.5.5.tar.gz z | tar -xvf -
cd rsync-2.5.5
patch -p1 < patches/rsync_zoong_tru64.diff
I get the following:
Hmm... I can't seem to find a patch in there anywhere.
Obviously I have something wrong somewhere. I tried it on
two newly created v5.1A pk1 systems. The first was my
trusty 1000A, just built last week and the 2nd was my
DS20 which was built about 3 weeks ago.
Exact same results.
I use the gunzip, and patch, and tar that came with the system,
installed everything on the os install disk
as these are my test systems.
This seems very strange to me.
Thanks In Advance for any help.
