| terms of the GNU General Public License. | |

| Since version 0.2.2-pre Apple's A/UX belongs to the officially supported | |
| platforms. It is not restricted in any way. | |
| Since version 0.5.0 ngIRCd's source compiles with the native A/UX c | |
| compiler. GNU C isn't a must-have anymore. | |
| The following software packages are needed: | |
| - GNU sed | |
| Source: | |
| http://www.rezepte-im-web.de/appleux/sed-3.02.tar.gz | |
| http://arthur.barton.de/pub/unix/aux/tools/sed-3.02.tar.gz | |
| A/UX comes with /bin/sed which isn't supporting all functions needed | |
| by GNU automake/autoconf. | |
| Warning: When installing GNU sed please make sure that A/UX doesn't | |
| use the old one anymore which means set the $PATH or replace /bin/sed | |
| at all. | |
| - libUTIL.a | |
| Source: | |
| ftp://ftp.mayn.de/pub/really_old_stuff/apple/apple_unix/Sys_stuff/libUTIL-2.1.tar.gz> | |
| http://arthur.barton.de/pub/unix/aux/libraries/libUTIL-2.1.tar.gz | |
| This library contains functions that are common on other UNIX | |
| systems but not on A/UX e.g. memmove(), strerror() and strdup(). | |
| After installation of these packages just do a "./configure" and "make" to | |
| compile ngIRCd on A/UX. | |
| A few hints in case of errors: | |
| - Either there's an 'install' on your system which is completely broken | |
| (so 'configure' uses its own shell script) or use a fully functionable one. | |
| There's at least one binary "out there" causing problems. The one | |
| of the GNU fileutils works fine: | |
| http://arthur.barton.de/pub/unix/aux/tools/fileutils-4.0.tar.gz | |
| - The precompiled binary of the old 'bash' shouldn't be installed within | |
| /bin (better do this in /usr/local/bin) because 'configure' would | |
| choose it as its shell which wouldn't work. | |
| - Because of limitations of /bin/sh on A/UX it can't be used to create | |
| the 'config.status' script. Better rename /bin/sh to /bin/sh.AUX and | |
| replace it by a symbolic link to /bin/ksh (ln -s /bin/ksh /bin/sh as | |
| root). | |
| These procedure shouldn't cause you into problems and is recommended | |
| even if you don't use ngIRCd. | |
