gnupg installation and compilation issues

[Sridhara M]

We are getting the following errors while compiling. I ran ./configure before make install.

Question: Do we need to install gcc or C/ANSI compiler.

It is on HP-UX 11.23

Appreciate your assistance. Any work around.

Almost certainly. The bundled C compiler on
PA-RISC is too weak to do much real work.
(On IA64 it's only slightly better.)

[Steven Schweda]

Or, if you look around, you may be able to
find a built kit which is suitable for your
environment.

>Do we need to install gcc or C/ANSI compiler.

Yes. Your K&R cpp doesn't ignore recursion in the define body as required by the Standard.

>Steven: (On IA64 it's only slightly better.)

Only slightly? ;-)
Isn't ANSI C so much better than K&R?

[Steven Schweda]

> Only slightly? ;-)

I'll admit that the IA64 bundled C compiler
was not crippled so effectively as the
PA-RISC bundled C compiler. I can't tell
whether that's because someone was being
nice, or it was just too much work to cripple
the IA64 compiler as thoroughly.

I'm not complaining about the IA64 compiler
being too good. (But give me a chance, and
I'll be happy to complain about not being
able to get a good compiler for HP-UX for the
same price ($0) as I can for Solaris, Tru64,
or VMS. Other than GCC, of course.)

[Dennis Handly]

>Steven: it was just too much work to cripple the Integrity compiler as thoroughly.

Yes, because aC++ doesn't support K&R.

I installed the eval version of C/ANSI compiler but getting the following errors when i tried to do make install. It complains about missing or empty ,/opt/aCC/newconfig/aCC.cwd. See below Is it the eval key?

Why not just use the ready to rock and roll version included on IExpress ??? Simplify your life ?

[Sridhara M]

We will eventually go with that option. First we are trying on the sand box.

If you can build an open-source product (like
GnuPG) from its sources, then:

1. You can probably get the latest version
working before you can find it already built
somewhere. The current GnuPG 1.x version is
1.4.9. I don't know what the latest HP-UX
Internet Express kit offers.

2. You can control the build-time options.
(GnuPG, for example, may include cURL or LDAP
support.) I don't know how the HP-UX
Internet Express kit was configured.

These considerations may not matter to
everyone, but not everyone likes rock and
roll, and sometimes it depends on the band.

> Simplify your life ?

Sometimes simplifying is good. Sometimes
it's not so good, especially when simplifying
one part of one's life complicates another
part of it.

> [...] Internal Error: Codeword file [...]

Sure sounds like a key problem. What's in
the file it mentions? Did you get a trial
key (codeword) and install it properly?

[Sridhara M]

I don't have the key yet. I am trying to get the key and follow the steps to put that in and see if compiles without issues.

Thanks
