Hi There,
1. We had to make the following changes to the configure script, which
was not otherwise recognizing the presence of some libraries.
The modifications in the configure script are the following
A. Removal of -Wl from LDFLAGS
B. Addition of an empty main function ( int main() { ; return 0; } )
while creating
conftest.* files for the following checks
1. zlib.h
2. crypt.h dld.h endian.h fp_class.h getopt.h ieeefp.h pwd.h sys/ipc.h
sys/pstat.h
sys/select.h sys/sem.h sys/socket.h sys/shm.h sys/types.h sys/un.h
termios.h
kernel/OS.h kernel/image.h SupportDefs.h
3. netinet/in.h
4. netinet/tcp.h
5. string.h and strings.h
6. readline/readline.h readline.h
ii. The following change has been done in src/backend/catalog/Makefile
in the
rules for generating global.bki and template1.bki files
CPP='$(CPP) -E' instead of CPP='$(CPP)'
After these changes, the compilation went through properly, but we had
problems
while invoking initdb, as given below.
