3# This is a hints file for DGUX, which is Data General's Unix. It was
735aabf6
RS
4# originally developed with version 5.4.3.10 of the OS, and then was
5# later updated running under version 4.11.2 (running on m88k hardware).
6# The gross features should work with versions going back to 2.nil but
7# some tweaking will probably be necessary.

c07a80fd 9# DGUX is a SVR4 derivative. It ships with gcc as the standard
735aabf6 10# compiler. Since version 3.0 it has shipped with Perl 4.036
c07a80fd 11# installed in /usr/bin, which is kind of neat. Be careful when you
12# install that you don't overwrite the system version, though (by
13# answering yes to the question about installing perl as /usr/bin/perl),
14# as it would suck to try to get support if the vendor learned that you
15# were physically replacing the system binaries.

c07a80fd 19# Here are the things from some old DGUX hints files which are different
20# from what's in here now. I don't know the exact reasons that most of
21# these settings were in the hints files, presumably they can be chalked
22# up to old Configure inadequacies and changes in the OS headers and the
23# like. These settings might make a good place to start looking if you
24# have problems.

27# say what version of the OS it was developed using.

31# The 4.036 and 5.001 hints files both contained these. The 5.001 hints

c07a80fd 49# One last note: The 5.001 hints file said "you don't want to use
50# /usr/ucb/cc" in the place at which it set cc to gcc. That in
735aabf6 51# particular baffles me, as I used to have 2.01 loaded and my memory
c07a80fd 52# is telling me that even then /usr/ucb was a symlink to /usr/bin.

55# The standard system compiler is gcc, but invoking it as cc changes its
56# behavior. I have to pick one name or the other so I can get the
57# dynamic loading switches right (they vary depending on this). I'm
58# picking gcc because there's no way to get at the optimization options
59# and so on when you call it cc.

71# DG has this thing set up with symlinks which point to different places
72# depending on environment variables (see elink(5)) and the compiler and
73# related tools use them to access different development environments
74# (COFF, ELF, m88k BCS and so on), see sde(5). The upshot, however, is
75# that when a normal program tries to access one of these elinks it sees
76# no such file (like stat()ting a mis-directed symlink). Setting
77# $plibpth to explicitly include the place to which the elinks point
78# allows Configure to find libraries which vary based on the development
79# environment.

81# Starting with version 4.10 (the first time the OS supported Intel

84# The default $TARGET_BINARY_INTERFACE changed with version 4.10. The
85# system now comes with a link named /usr/sde/default which points to

104NOTE: I can't figure out what SDE is used by default on this machine (I
105didn't find a likely directory under $sde_path). This is bad news. If
106this is a R4.10 or newer system I'm not going to be able to find any of
107your libraries, if this system is R3.10 or older I won't be able to find
108the math library. You should re-run Configure with the environment
109variable TARGET_BINARY_INTERFACE set to the proper value for this
110machine, see sde(5) and the notes in hints/dgux.sh.
