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

46   - See the INSTALL document for info on configuring and compiling
# Line 37 | Line 48 | Feature Specific Requirements:
48  
49   - Please read doc/index.txt to get an overview of the current documentation.
50  
40 - There is also a mailing list for general discussion of Hybrid.  To subscribe
41  to the Hybrid List, use this link:
42  https://lists.ircd-hybrid.org/mailman/listinfo/hybrid
43
44 - To report bugs in hybrid, send the bug report to bugs@ircd-hybrid.org
45
51   - Known bugs are listed in the BUGS file
52  
48 - If you run in to a problem you think may be specific to your platform,
49  check README.PLATFORMS for some hints.
50
51 - 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
53   - TESTED PLATFORMS:  The code has been tested on the following platforms, and
54    is known to run properly.
55 <  FreeBSD 3.x/4.x/5.x (gcc only, TenDRA will work but only with the latest
56 <  cvs version from ten15.org)
57 <  Linux glibc 2.2/2.3
58 <  Solaris 2.6/7/8
64 <  OpenBSD 2.8-3.2
65 <  HP-UX 11.00-11.22
66 <  IRIX64 6.5.19 (gcc only; MIPSpro is unconfirmed)
67 <  NetBSD 1.4-1.6
68 <  Tru64 UNIX 5.2b (only tested with native cc)
69 <
70 <  It probably does not compile on AIX or libc5 Linux.
71 <
72 < - Old Hybrid 5/6 configuration files are no longer supported.  All conf
73 <  files will have to be converted to the Hybrid 7 format.
55 >  (FIXME: this list is out of date)
56 >  CentOS 5.8
57 >  Red Hat Linux 9
58 >  Ubuntu 12.04
59  
60   - If you are wondering why config.h no longer exists, it's because most
61    things that were once in config.h are now specified in the 'general'
62 <  block of ircd.conf.  Look at example.conf for more information about
63 <  these options. Many, notably syslog support and EFnet tweaks, are now
79 <  configure options (see ./configure --help for details.)
62 >  block of ircd.conf. Look at example.conf for more information about
63 >  these options.
64  
65   - /etc/resolv.conf must exist for the resolver to work.
66  
67 < - Please read NEWS for information about what is in
84 <  this release.
67 > - Please read NEWS for information about what is in this release.
