|
* - 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" * |
| 16 |
< |
* - The old config format WILL NOT WORK. Please see etc/example.conf ! * |

- A supported platform (look below) |

|
| 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 |
– |
|
| 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 |
| 59 |
< |
Cygwin 1.3.22 (no shared modules yet) |
| 60 |
< |
OpenBSD 2.8-3.2 |
| 61 |
< |
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. |
| 55 |
> |
(FIXME: this list is out of date) |
| 56 |
> |
CentOS 5.8 |
| 57 |
> |
Red Hat Linux 9 |
| 58 |
> |
Ubuntu 12.04 |
| 59 |
> |
OpenBSD 5.2 |
| 60 |

Arch Linux 2012.12.01 |
| 61 |
> |
Debian GNU/Hurd 0.3 |

|
- If you are wondering why config.h no longer exists, it's because most |
| 64 |
|
things that were once in config.h are now specified in the 'general' |
| 65 |
< |
block of ircd.conf. Look at example.conf for more information about |
| 66 |
< |
these options. Many, notably syslog support and EFnet tweaks, are now |
| 91 |
< |
configure options (see ./configure --help for details.) |
