************ Note for those who don't bother reading docs *************** |

|
|
* - Reading INSTALL is now a must, as the old DPATH is now specified * |
5 |
|
|
* when configure is run. * |
6 |
|
|
* You now need to ./configure --prefix="/path/to/install/it" * |

* - The old config format WILL NOT WORK. Please see etc/example.conf ! * |
8 |
|
|
* - The old kline, dline, xline, gline format WILL NOT WORK. * |

ALSO, IF YOU ARE UPGRADING YOUR CURRENT SOURCE TREE, AND YOU TRY TO BUILD |
12 |
|
|
IN IT WITHOUT PERFORMING AT LEAST 'make clean', THINGS _WILL_ BREAK. IT IS |
13 |
|
|
RECOMMENDED THAT YOU RUN 'make distclean' AND THEN RERUN './configure'! |

49 |
|
|
check README.PLATFORMS for some hints. |

|
|
- SOLARIS USERS: this code appears to tickle a bug in older gcc and |
52 |
|
|
egcs ONLY on 64-bit Solaris7. gcc-2.95 and SunPro C on 64bit should |
53 |
|
|
work fine, and any gcc or SunPro compiled on 32bit. |
54 |
|
|
|
55 |
|
|
- DARWIN AND MACOS X USERS: You must be using at least the December 2001 |
56 |
|
|
Development Tools from Apple to build ircd-hybrid with shared modules. |
57 |
|
|
|
58 |
|
|
- TESTED PLATFORMS: The code has been tested on the following platforms, and |
59 |
|
|
is known to run properly. |

(FIXME: this list is out of date) |

FreeBSD 3.x/4.x/5.x/7.x/8.0 (gcc only, TenDRA will work but only with the latest |
62 |
adx |
30 |
cvs version from ten15.org) |
63 |
michael |
1138 |
Linux glibc 2.2/2.3/2.10.1/2.12.1 |
64 |
adx |

Solaris 2.6/7/8 |
65 |
|
|
OpenBSD 2.8-3.2 |
66 |
|
|
HP-UX 11.00-11.22 |
67 |
|
|
IRIX64 6.5.19 (gcc only; MIPSpro is unconfirmed) |
68 |
|
|
NetBSD 1.4-1.6 |
69 |
|
|
Tru64 UNIX 5.2b (only tested with native cc) |

|
It probably does not compile on AIX or libc5 Linux. |

|
73 |
|
|
- If you are wondering why config.h no longer exists, it's because most |
74 |
|
|
things that were once in config.h are now specified in the 'general' |
75 |
|
|
block of ircd.conf. Look at example.conf for more information about |
76 |
|
|
these options. Many, notably syslog support and EFnet tweaks, are now |
77 |
|
|
configure options (see ./configure --help for details.) |
78 |
|
|
|
79 |
|
|
- /etc/resolv.conf must exist for the resolver to work. |
