Hi all,

the aMule Developers Team would probably be glad to know that aMule r9694 :

- cross-compile (almost) perfectly on --build=i686-pc-cygwin --host=mips-sgi-irix6.5
- runs with no problems on my IRIX box (up to now, I mean...)

and thanks god the amuleGUI-r9600 (formerly compiled on mingw ) connects nicely
with the remote server.

"Almost" perfectly, 'cause "cas" won't compile. I'm trying to dig out why. Otherwise this
"configure" gives me a workin' suite of aMule programs:

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/sh
export PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=/usr/mips-sgi-irix6.5/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig

export CPPFLAGS='-I/usr/mips-sgi-irix6.5/usr/include -I/usr/mips-sgi-irix6.5/usr/local/include'
export CFLAGS='-Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib:/usr/freeware/lib:/usr/freeware/lib32'

make install


Made it the hard way: starting from Toolchain (a real pain, you have to add stanzas
for c++ in the .m4 files and reconfigure all the stuff)
and cross-compiling from source all the needed libraries. Honestly, I feel myself
satisfied 

But the best thing is a compilation time of 21'49'', that is to say about one hundred
faster than the required time on my O2.

Thank you for the feedback!

You can download a compiled Windows remote gui here.

I believe you deserve at least two for this feat.

Please keep us posted. Your contributions to making aMule compatible to more platforms have been very valuable.

I forgot to thank wuischke and GonoszTopi for their hints. Thanks a lot, really.

BTW:  just a detail. I have had to transfer all the installed files in a very ugly way,
like

Code: [Select]

# touch Install_timestamp
# make install
# find /usr/mips-sgi-irix6.5/usr/local -newer Install_timestamp -type f | xargs tar -rvf Packaged_tarball.tar

and then transferring the tarfile to the O2. It would be nice to add a target like, let's say,
"packaged-install" in Makefile to make the life easier. Just a suggestion...

Cheers,

Sure, of course!

A friend of mine gave me as a gift an old Sun SparcStation5. The PizzaBox.
What a pity aMule is already ported to Solaris

I usually do a "make DESTDIR=$PKGDIR install" and then create a tarball of the content of $PKGDIR.

Found the "bug". My fault, it was a glitch in gd cross-compilation -not exactly a masterpiece of
clarity of expression in cross-compilation instructions-, nothing related to aMule
itself. Rebult libraries and aMule, "cas" is now working like a breeze.

Hi Gaznevada

I believe the last time I tried to compile a SVN aMule on my solaris, it failed. I was pretty tired at that moment, so I didn't take a look deeper, but I will probably next weeked. Also, since my solaris is now a virtual machine under VMware, i cannot test SPARC architecture. (note to self: get friends who giveaway SPARC boxes)

Regards.

Hi skolnick,

I'm afraid my tests on a real SPARC architecture will take a while. I can't even bootstrap the machine. No wonder my friend gave it away as a gift. Probably proper disposal was too much a hassle for him, I suppose.

The moral of the story: while looking for friends giving away SPARC boxes, better being picky.

Cheers,
