GNU/FreeWare Tools for HPUX

Alzhy — Mon, 02 Jun 2003 16:34:20 GMT

Is there a specific CD (from th HPUX CD Set) that contains all/most of the GNU tools -- ie. less, gzip, emacs, perl,tcsh, Tcl/TK, vim, flex, etc. -- much like Solaris' companion CD?

If not, could anybody point me to a HP or other site that hosts where I can download binaries or depots?

Many thanks.

And some (IMHO the most useful) on my ITRC site: https://www.beepz.com/personal/merijn/ or http://www.cmve.net/~merijn/

Also there's the linux porting kit for hp-ux
http://www.software.hp.com/cgi-bin/swdepot_parser.cgi/cgi/displayProductInfo.pl?productNumber=B9891AA

This provides a lot of tools and libraries for building programs under HPUX.

But isn't there an HP depot/CD image/site that is "officially" built by HP (albeit not supported) that is more or less "sanitized" amd tested? They've a package called CIFS/9000 Server which is basically your Samba Suite... Don't they have something like GNUTools/9000 or something?

The only HP site is http://www.software.hp.com/

And I don't believe there are any GNU tools there.

Okay.. I finally found what I am looking for. HP has this Linux to HPUX Porting Kit which include 32/64 bit versions of the GNU C COmpiler plus sources of about 50 commonly used tools. It is Free for download or as a CD -- HP Part# B9891AA

Thanks for the links anyways..!

That is *VERY* old!

Please use the versions from my site or from the HP porting center (http://hpux.connect.org.uk/) which are much more up to date

Enjoy, have FUN! H.Merijn
