Hi
I downloaded bash from Software Porting and Archive Centre for HP-UX. As recommended I installed the following:
bash 2.05a
gettext 0.11.2
libiconv 1.8
When I try to start bash I get a error message:
# /usr/local/bin/bash
/usr/lib/dld.sl: Can't open shared library: /usr/local/lib/libhistory.sl
/usr/lib/dld.sl: No such file or directory
Abort(coredump)

I cant find libhistory.sl in any ot the three installed packages.

There is two versions of bash, HP-UX 11.0 and HP-UX 11.20. I run HP-UX 11.11. Which is the right version for me or what is missing.

The version for 11.0 is the correct version.

It looks like an expected package is missing. Any documentation for bash 2.05a?

Hi
I have no luck with this. I tested installing on a 11.0 computer with the same result. There seems to be some package(s) missing but I cant find any information about this. Is there anyone who has installed bash with success who can give me information what he (she) has installed (swlist).

Hi
Fredric, can you do a full swlist, it seems that bash depends on some other packages. If the list is too long you can send it as a attachment.

http://h21007.www2.hp.com/dspp/tech/tech_TechSoftwareDetailPage_IDX/1,1703,535,00.html

Thank you

Hi,

you have to download the readline package, which iwil include some needed libraries, such as libhistory.sl and libreadline.sl.

The bash package also depends on the readline package.

I had similar problems that were resolved by installing the dependancies:
gettext
libiconv
readline

After these were properly installed, as well as bash-2.05a for HPUX 11.00, all was well.

I have also some unsovled problems with the new tcsh (6.11.00). I got the following error message:
exec(2): invalid alignment in a.out
bash: /usr/bin/tcsh: Bad address

Has anybody an idea?

Thx
