************ Note for those who don't bother reading docs *************** |
7 |
|
|
* - Reading INSTALL is now a must, as the old DPATH is now specified * |
8 |
|
|
* when configure is run. * |
9 |
|
|
* You now need to ./configure --prefix="/path/to/install/it" * |
10 |
|
|
* - The old config format WILL NOT WORK. Please see etc/example.conf ! * |
11 |
|
|
* - The old kline, dline, xline, gline format WILL NOT WORK. |

ALSO, IF YOU ARE UPGRADING YOUR CURRENT SOURCE TREE, AND YOU TRY TO BUILD |
15 |
|
|
IN IT WITHOUT PERFORMING AT LEAST 'make clean', THINGS _WILL_ BREAK. IT IS |
16 |
|
|
RECOMMENDED THAT YOU RUN 'make distclean' AND THEN RERUN './configure'! |

- Known bugs are listed in the BUGS file |
56 |
|
|
|
57 |
|
|
- If you run in to a problem you think may be specific to your platform, |
58 |
|
|
check README.PLATFORMS for some hints. |
59 |
|
|
|
60 |
|
|
- SOLARIS USERS: this code appears to tickle a bug in older gcc and |
61 |
|
|
egcs ONLY on 64-bit Solaris7. gcc-2.95 and SunPro C on 64bit should |
62 |
|
|
work fine, and any gcc or SunPro compiled on 32bit. |
63 |
|
|
|
64 |
|
|
- DARWIN AND MACOS X USERS: You must be using at least the December 2001 |
65 |
|
|
Development Tools from Apple to build ircd-hybrid with shared modules. |
66 |
|
|
Before then you MUST disable shared modules, as we do not have the proper |
67 |
|
|
flags for cc(1) prior to that point to produce shared modules. |
68 |
|
|
|
69 |
|
|
- TESTED PLATFORMS: The code has been tested on the following platforms, and |
70 |
|
|
is known to run properly. |
71 |
|
|
FreeBSD 3.x/4.x/5.x (gcc only, TenDRA will work but only with the latest |
72 |
|
|
cvs version from ten15.org) |
73 |
|
|
Linux glibc 2.2/2.3 |
74 |
|
|
Solaris 2.6/7/8 |
75 |
|
|
Cygwin 1.3.22 (no shared modules yet) |
76 |
|
|
OpenBSD 2.8-3.2 |
77 |
|
|
HP-UX 11.00-11.22 |
78 |
|
|
IRIX64 6.5.19 (gcc only; MIPSpro is unconfirmed) |
79 |
|
|
NetBSD 1.4-1.6 |
80 |
|
|
Tru64 UNIX 5.2b (only tested with native cc) |
81 |
|
|
|
82 |
|
|
It probably does not compile on AIX or libc5 Linux. |
83 |
|
|
|
84 |
|
|
- Old Hybrid 5/6 configuration files are no longer supported. All conf |
85 |
|
|
files will have to be converted to the Hybrid 7 format. |
86 |
|
|
|
87 |
|
|
- If you are wondering why config.h no longer exists, it's because most |
88 |
|
|
things that were once in config.h are now specified in the 'general' |
89 |
|
|
block of ircd.conf. Look at example.conf for more information about |
90 |
|
|
these options. Many, notably syslog support and EFnet tweaks, are now |
91 |
|
|
configure options (see ./configure --help for details.) |
92 |
|
|
|
93 |
|
|
- /etc/resolv.conf must exist for the resolver to work. |
94 |
|
|
|
95 |
|
|
- Please read RELNOTES and doc/whats-new.txt for information about what is in |
96 |
|
|
this release. |
