Re: building 7.4.3 on Solaris 9/Intel - Mailing list pgsql-general

Thanks for the response. Yup, I'm sure it's 7.4.3.

From the config.log, it looks like the check for getpwuid_r test program
uses -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS, which turns on the POSIX version of the
call, but the check for "fifth argument" test compile doesn't include
this define, so it fails, and the GETPWUID_R_5ARG doesn't get set:

configure:13411: checking for getpwuid_r
configure:13454: gcc -o conftest -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -D_REENTRANT
-D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS   -Wl,-i,-z,defs,-z,
ignore,-z,lazyload  conftest.c -lz -lrt -lresolv -lgen -lsocket -lnsl
-ldl -lm  -lpthread >&5
configure:13457: $? = 0
configure:13460: test -s conftest
configure:13463: $? = 0
configure:13473: result: yes
configure:13411: checking for gethostbyname_r
configure:13454: gcc -o conftest -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -D_REENTRANT
-D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS   -Wl,-i,-z,defs,-z,
ignore,-z,lazyload  conftest.c -lz -lrt -lresolv -lgen -lsocket -lnsl
-ldl -lm  -lpthread >&5
configure:13457: $? = 0
configure:13460: test -s conftest
configure:13463: $? = 0
configure:13473: result: yes
configure:13485: checking whether getpwuid_r takes a fifth argument
configure:13515: gcc -c -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing   conftest.c >&5
configure: In function `main':
configure:13507: too many arguments to function `getpwuid_r'

Once I #defined the variable in pg_config.h, everything compiled fine,
of course, but one shouldn't have to....

7.4.3?  Are you sure?  This should be fixed in 7.4.3.

From an earlier reply I made to somebody in the [ADMIN] mailing list,
regarding trying to build 7.4.2 on Solaris 8:

This is fixed in CVS.  Or you can apply this patch

    http://jimsun.linxnet.com/misc/pgsql-7.4.2.patch

to a freshly-extracted 7.4.2 tarball (*before* running configure).

Standard Disclaimer: No warranties, express or implied.

I'm running 7.4.2 on both a Sparc Solaris 7 and a Sparc Solaris 8
machine, with that patch.
