Hi there,
attempting to build postgres-7.4 on a sparc/solaris5.9.
I have sfw's gcc-3.3 and sfw's make-3.8. I also have sfw's readline-1.4
and bison-1.875.
make can not seem to find libpgport.a in postgresql-7.4/src/port. and
indeed it's not there when I take a look. What went wrong? do I need to
add this lib from somewhere else(!)?
here is the output from make, which barfs shortly into its process:
# gmake
gmake -C doc all
gmake[1]: Entering directory
`/zfr/usr/local/src/postgresql/postgresql-7.4/doc'
gmake[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
gmake[1]: Leaving directory

gmake -C src all
gmake[1]: Entering directory

gmake -C port all
gmake[2]: Entering directory

ar crs libpgport.a isinf.o getopt_long.o qsort.o path.o sprompt.o thread.o

gmake[2]: *** [libpgport.a] Error 127
gmake[2]: Leaving directory

gmake[1]: *** [all] Error 2
gmake[1]: Leaving directory
`/zfr/usr/local/src/postgresql/postgresql-7.4/src'
gmake: *** [all] Error 2
any help or insight would be much appreciated. Thanks.
