7 This is a list of the status of GNU Emacs on various machines and systems.
|
|
|
8
|
|
|
9 For each system and machine, we give the configuration name you should
|
|
|
10 pass to the `configure' script to prepare to build Emacs for that
|
|
|
11 system/machine.
|
|
|
12
|
|
|
13 The `configure' script uses the configuration name to decide which
|
|
|
14 machine and operating system description files `src/config.h' should
|
|
|
15 include. The machine description files are all in `src/m', and have
|
|
|
16 names similar to, but not identical to, the machine names used in
|
|
|
17 configuration names. The operating system files are all in `src/s',
|
|
|
18 and are named similarly. See the `configure' script if you need to
|
|
|
19 know which configuration names use which machine and operating system
|
|
|
20 description files.
|
|
|
21
|
|
|
22 If you add support for a new configuration, add a section to this
|
|
|
23 file, and then edit the `configure' script to tell it which
|
|
|
24 configuration name(s) should select your new machine description and
|
|
|
25 system description files.
|
|
|
26
|
|
87721
|
27 Some obsolete platforms are unsupported beginning with Emacs 23.1, see
|
|
|
28 the full list at the end of this file.

|

|
|
|
31 Here are the configurations Emacs is intended to work with, with the
|
|
|
32 corresponding configuration names. You can postpend version numbers
|
|
|
33 to operating system names (i.e. sunos4.1) or architecture names (i.e.
|
|
|
34 hppa1.1). If you leave out the version number, the `configure' script
|
|
|
35 will configure Emacs for the latest version it knows about.

|
39 DEC C compiler version 5.9 (DEC C V5.9-005 on Digital UNIX V4.0f)
|
|
|
40 is reported to produce bogus binaries of Emacs 21.2 when the
|
|
|
41 command-line switches "-O4 -arch ev6 -tune ev6" are used. Using
|
|
|
42 just -O4 produces a good executable.
|
|
|
43
|
|
25852
|
44 For 4.0 revision 564, and 4.0A and 4.0B, Emacs 20 seems to work
|
|
34881
|
45 with no special configuration options. However, if you use GCC as
|
|
|
46 your compiler, you will need version 2.8.1 or later, as older
|
|
|
47 versions fail to build with a message "Invalid dimension for the
|
|
|
48 charset-ID 160".

50 Note that the X11 libraries on GNU/Linux systems for the Alpha are
|
|
|
51 said to have bugs that prevent Emacs from working with X (as of
|
|
|
52 November 1995). Recent releases work (July 2000).

83
|
|
|
84 Changes merged in 19.1. Systems before 2/A/0 may fail to compile etags.c
|
|
|
85 due to a compiler bug.

92 19.25 works on Ultrix 4.2. The 19.26 pretest was reported to work

|
|
93 on Ultrix 4.2a and on 4.4.
|

94
|
|
|
95 One user reported 19.25 did not work at all with --with-x-toolkit

98 See under Ultrix for problems using X windows on Ultrix.
|
|
|
99 Note that this is a MIPS machine.
|
|
|
100
|
|
|
101 For Ultrix versions 4.1 or earlier, you may need to define
|
|
|
102 SYSTEM_MALLOC in `src/m/pmax.h', because XvmsAlloc.o in libX11.a seems
|
|
|
103 to insist on defining malloc itself.
|
|
|
104
|
|
|
105 For Ultrix versions prior to 4.0, you may need to delete
|
|
|
106 the definition of START_FILES from `src/m/pmax.h'.

130 Harris Power PC (powerpc-harris-powerunix)
|
|
|
131
|
|
|
132 Patches have been merged in 19.31.
|
|
|
133
|
|
|
134 Hewlett-Packard 9000 series 200 or 300 (m68k-hp-bsd or m68k-hp-hpux
|
|
|
135 or m68k-hp-netbsd)
|
|
|
136
|
|
|
137 These machines are 68000-series CPUs running HP/UX
|
|
|
138 (a derivative of sysV with some BSD features) or BSD 4.3 ported by Utah.
|
|
|
139 The operating system suffix determines which system Emacs is built for.
|
|
|
140
|
|
|
141 Series 200 HPUX runs Emacs only if it has the "HP/UX upgrade".
|
|
|
142
|
|
|
143 Version 19 works under BSD. The 19.26 pretest was reported
|
|
|
144 to work on HPUX 9. 19.31 works on HPUX 10.01, but there are
|
|
|
145 some problems on 10.10 which have not been resolved. Emacs 19.34
|
|
|
146 works on HPUX 10.20 provided you compile with GCC; with the HP C
|
|
|
147 compiler, subprocess commands do not work.
|
|
49549
|
148
|
|
25852
|
149 On HPUX 9, Emacs sometimes crashes with SIGBUS or SIGSEGV after you
|
|
|
150 delete a frame. We think this is due to a bug in the X libraries
|
|
|
151 provided by HP. With the alternative X libraries in
|
|
|
152 /usr/contrib/mitX11R5/lib, the problem does not happen.
|
|
|
153
|
|
|
154 If you are running HP/UX release 8.0 or later, you need the optional
|
|
|
155 "C/ANSI C" software in order to build Emacs (older releases of HP/UX
|
|
|
156 do not require any special software). If the file "/etc/filesets/C"
|
|
|
157 exists on your machine, you have this software, otherwise you do not.
|
|
|
158
|
|
|
159 Note that HP has used two incompatible assembler syntaxes,
|
|
|
160 and has recently changed the format of C function frames.
|
|
|
161 `src/crt0.c' and `src/alloca.s' have been conditionalised for the new
|
|
|
162 assembler and new function-entry sequence. You may need to define
|
|
|
163 OLD_HP_ASSEMBLER if you are using an older hpux version. If you
|
|
|
164 have an official (bought from HP) series 300 machine you have
|
|
|
165 the new assembler. Kernels that are 5.+ or later have new
|
|
|
166 assembler. A Series 200 that has been upgraded to a 68010
|
|
|
167 processor and a 5.+ kernel has the new compiler.
|
|
|
168
|
|
|
169 Define C_SWITCH_MACHINE to be +X to make a version of Emacs that
|
|
|
170 runs on both 68010 and 68020 based HP/UX's.
|
|
|
171
|
|
|
172 Define HPUX_68010 if you are using the new assembler, for
|
|
|
173 a system that has a 68010 without a 68881. This is to say,
|
|
|
174 a s200 (upgraded) or s310.
|
|
|
175
|
|
|
176 Define the symbol HPUX_NET if you have the optional network features
|
|
|
177 that include the `netunam' system call. This is referred to as
|
|
|
178 Network Services (NS/9000) in HP literature.
|
|
|
179
|
|
|
180 HP 9000 series 500: not supported.
|
|
|
181
|
|
|
182 The series 500 has a seriously incompatible memory architecture
|
|
|
183 which relocates data in memory during execution of a program,
|
|
|
184 and support for it would be difficult to implement.
|
|
|
185
|
|
|
186 HP 9000 series 700 or 800 (Spectrum) (hppa1.0-hp-hpux or hppa1.1-hp-hpux
|
|
|
187 or ...hpux9shr, or ...-nextstep)
|
|
|
188
|
|
|
189 Use hppa1.1 for the 700 series and hppa1.0 for the 800
|
|
|
190 series machines. (Emacs may not actually care which one you use.)
|
|
|
191
|
|
|
192 Support for NextSTEP was added in 19.31.
|
|
|
193
|
|
|
194 Emacs 20 may work on HPUX 10. You need patch PHSS_6202 to install
|
|
|
195 the Xaw and Xmu libraries. On HPUX 10.20 you may need to compile with GCC;
|
|
|
196 when Emacs was compiled with HP's C compiler, HP92453-01 A.10.32.03,
|
|
|
197 the subprocess features failed to work.
|
|
|
198
|
|
|
199 19.26 is believed to work on HPUX 9 provided you compile with GCC.
|
|
|
200 As of version 19.16, Emacs was reported to build (using GCC) and run
|
|
|
201 on HP 9000/700 series machines running HP/UX versions 8.07 and 9.01.
|
|
|
202 The HP compiler is known to fail on some versions if you use +O3,
|
|
|
203 but it may work with lower optimization levels.
|
|
|
204
|
|
|
205 Use hppa1.1-hp-hpux9shr to use shared libraries on HPUX version 9.
|
|
|
206 You may need to create the X libraries libXaw.a and libXmu.a from
|
|
|
207 the MIT X distribute, and you may need to edit src/Makefile's
|
|
|
208 definition of LIBXT to look like this:
|
|
|
209
|
|
|
210 LIBXT= $(LIBW) -lXmu -lXt $(LIBXTR6) -lXext
|
|
|
211
|
|
|
212 Some people report trouble using the GNU memory allocator under
|
|
|
213 HP/UX version 9. The problems often manifest as lots of ^@'s in the
|
|
|
214 buffer.
|
|
49549
|
215
|
|
25852
|
216 We are told that these problems go away if you obtain the latest
|
|
|
217 patches for the HP/UX C compiler. James J Dempsey
|
|
|
218 <jjd@spserv.bbn.com> says that this set of versions works for him:

224 Ucode Code Generator - HP-UX.09.00.23.5 (patch) 2/18/93
|
|
|
225
|
|
|
226 For 700 series machines, the HP-UX patch needed is known as
|
|
|
227 PHSS_2653. (Perhaps for 800 series machines as well; we don't
|
|
|
228 know.) If you are on the Internet, you should be able to obtain
|
|
|
229 this patch by using telnet to access the machine
|
|
|
230 support.mayfield.hp.com and logging in as "hpslreg" and following

|
|
240 If your buffer fills up with nulls (^@) at some point, it could well
|
|
|
241 be that problem. That problem does not happen when people use GCC
|
|
|
242 to compile Emacs. On the other hand, the HP compiler version 9.34
|
|
|
243 was reported to work for the 19.26 pretest. 9.65 was also reported to work.
|
|
|
244
|
|
|
245 If you turn on the DSUSP character (delayed suspend),
|
|
|
246 Emacs 19.26 does not know how to turn it off on HPUX.
|
|
|
247 You need to turn it off manually.
|
|
|
248
|
|
|
249 If you are running HP/UX release 8.0 or later, you need the optional
|
|
|
250 "C/ANSI C" software in order to build Emacs (older releases of HP/UX
|
|
|
251 do not require any special software). If the file "/etc/filesets/C"
|
|
|
252 exists on your machine, you have this software, otherwise you do not.

|
|
|
263
|
|
|
264 Emacs 19.26 is believed to work; its pretest was tested.
|
|
|
265
|
|
34881
|
266 Compiling with the system's `cc' and CFLAGS containing `-O5' might
|
|
|
267 fail because libXbsd isn't found. This is a compiler bug;
|
|
|
268 re-configure Emacs so that it isn't compiled with `-O5'.
|
|
|
269
|
|
42227
|
270 On AIX 4.3.x and 4.4, compiling with /bin/c89 fails because it
|
|
|
271 treats certain warnings as errors. Use `cc' instead.
|
|
|
272
|
|
25852
|
273 At last report, Emacs didn't run well on terminals. Informed
|
|
|
274 persons say that the tty VMIN and VTIME settings have been
|
|
|
275 corrupted; if you have a fix, please send it to us.
|
|
|
276
|
|
|
277 Compiling with -O using the IBM compiler has been known
|
|
|
278 to make Emacs work incorrectly. It's reported that on
|
|
|
279 AIX 3.2.5 with an IBM compiler earlier than 1.03.00.14,
|
|
|
280 cc -O fails for some files. You need to install any
|
|
|
281 PTF containing APAR #IX42810 to bring the compiler to
|
|
|
282 the 1.03.00.14 level to allow optimized compiles.
|
|
|
283
|
|
|
284 There are reports that IBM compiler versions earlier than 1.03.00.02
|
|
|
285 fail even without -O. However, another report said that compiler
|
|
|
286 version 1.02.01.00 did work, on AIX 3.2.4, with Emacs 19.31.
|
|
|
287
|
|
|
288 As of 19.11, if you strip the Emacs executable, it ceases to work.
|
|
|
289
|
|
|
290 If you are using AIX 3.2.3, you may get a core dump when loading
|
|
|
291 ange-ftp. You may be able to fix the problem by defining LIBS_TERMCAP
|
|
|
292 as -ltermcap -lcurses. Please tell us if this fails to work.
|
|
|
293
|
|
|
294 If anyone can fix the above problems, or confirm that they don't happen
|
|
|
295 with certain versions of various programs, we would appreciate it.

|

|
305 Version 18.45 worked (running on a Optimum V (VME bus, 68020)
|
|
|
306 BSD 4.2 (3.05e) system). 18.42 is reported to work on
|
|
|
307 a Qbus 68010 system. Has not been tried on `WorkStation' `Cluster

|
|
|
311 Compilation with -O is rumored to break something.
|
|
|
312
|
|
|
313 On recent system versions, you may need to undefine the macro UMAX
|
|
|
314 in `lib-src/loadst.c' and `src/getpagesize.h'. They stupidly defined this
|
|
|
315 in a system header file, which confuses Emacs (which thinks that UMAX
|
|
|
316 indicates the Umax operating system).

327 you specify does not matter, and you can use any name you like
|
|
|
328 (but it should not contain any dashes or stars).
|
|
|
329
|
|
|
330 When using the ISC configurations, be sure to specify the isc
|
|
|
331 version number - for example, if you're running ISC 3.0, use
|
|
|
332 i386-unknown-isc3.0 as your configuration name.
|
|
|
333 Use i386-*-linux-gnu for GNU/Linux systems; Emacs runs as of version 19.26.
|
|
59996
|
334 Use i386-*-cygwin for Cygwin; Emacs builds as of version 22.1, in both X11
|
|
49549
|
335 and non-X11 modes. (The Cygwin site has source and binaries for 21.2.)
|
|
25852
|
336 Use i386-intsys-sysv for Integrated Solutions 386 machines.
|
|
|
337 It may also be correct for Microport systems.
|
|
|
338
|
|
|
339 On GNU/Linux systems, Emacs 19.23 was said to work properly with libc
|
|
|
340 version 4.5.21, but not with 4.5.19. If your system uses QMAGIC
|
|
|
341 for the executable format, you must edit config.h to define LINUX_QMAGIC.
|
|
|
342
|
|
|
343 On GNU/Linux, configure may fail to put these definitions in config.h:
|
|
|
344
|
|
|
345 #define HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY
|
|
|
346 #define HAVE_MKDIR
|
|
|
347 #define HAVE_RMDIR
|
|
|
348 #define HAVE_XSCREENNUMBEROFSCREEN
|
|
|
349
|
|
|
350 To work around the problem, add those definitions by hand.
|
|
30454
|
351 It is possible that this problem happens only with X11R6.
|
|
|
352 Newer system versions have fixed it.
|
|
25852
|
353
|
|
|
354 The 19.26 pretest was reported to work on SVR4.3 and on Freebsd.
|
|
|
355
|
|
|
356 19.29 is reported to crash when using Motif on Solaris 2.5.
|
|
|
357 The reasons are not yet known.
|
|
|
358
|
|
|
359 Use i386-*-bsdiN for BSDI BSD/OS version N; Emacs runs as of version 19.23.
|
|
|
360 In some system versions, `make' is broken; use GNU make instead.
|
|
|
361 Shell bugs in version 1.0 of BSD/OS cause configure
|
|
|
362 to do the wrong thing with --with-x-toolkit; the workaround is to edit
|
|
|
363 configure to run another shell such as bash.
|
|
|
364
|
|
|
365 For System V release 3, use i386-*-sysv3.
|
|
|
366 For System V release 4, use i386-*-sysv4.
|
|
|
367 For System V release 4.2, use i386-*-sysv4.2.
|
|
|

|
369 If you are using SCO Unix, see notes at end under SCO.
|
|
|
370
|
|
|
371 On 386bsd, NetBSD and FreeBSD, at one time, it was necessary to use
|
|
|
372 GNU make, not the system's make. Assuming it's installed as gmake,
|
|
|
373 do `gmake install MAKE=gmake'. However, more recently it is
|
|
|
374 reported that using the system Make on NetBSD 1.3.1 works ok.
|
|
|
375
|
|
|
376 If you are using System V release 4.2, you may find that `cc -E'
|
|
|
377 puts spurious spaces in `src/xmakefile'. If that happens,
|
|
|
378 specify CPP=/lib/cpp as an option when you run make.
|
|
|
379 There is no problem if you compile with GCC.
|
|
49549
|
380
|
|
25852
|
381 Note that use of Linux with GCC 2.4 and the DLL 4.4 libraries
|
|
|
382 requires the experimental "net 2" network patches (no relation to
|
|
|
383 Berkeley Net 2). There is a report that (some version of) Linux
|
|
|
384 requires including `/usr/src/linux/include/linux' in buffer.c
|
|
|
385 but no coherent explanation of why that might be so. If it is so,
|
|
|
386 in current versions of Linux, something else should probably be changed.
|
|
|
387
|
|
|
388 Some sysV.3 systems seem to have bugs in `opendir';
|
|
|
389 for them, alter `config.h' to define NONSYSTEM_DIR_LIBRARY
|
|
|
390 and undefine SYSV_SYSTEM_DIR.
|
|
|
391
|
|
|
392 If you use optimization on V.3, you may need the option -W2,'-y 0'
|
|
|
393 to prevent certain faulty optimization.
|
|
|
394
|
|
|
395 On 386/ix, to link with shared libraries, add #define USG_SHARED_LIBRARIES
|
|
|
396 to config.h.
|
|
|
397
|
|
|
398 On SCO, there are problems in regexp matching when Emacs is compiled
|
|
|
399 with the system compiler. The compiler version is "Microsoft C
|
|
|
400 version 6", SCO 4.2.0h Dev Sys Maintenance Supplement 01/06/93;
|
|
|
401 Quick C Compiler Version 1.00.46 (Beta). The solution is to compile
|
|
|
402 with GCC.
|
|
|
403
|
|
|
404 On ISC systems (2.02 and more recent), don't try to use the versions
|
|
|
405 of X that come with the system; use XFree86 instead.
|
|
|
406
|
|
|
407 There is no consistency in the handling of certain system header files
|
|
|
408 on V.3.
|
|
|
409
|
|
|
410 Some versions have sys/sioctl.h, and require it in sysdep.c.
|
|
|
411 But some versions do not have sys/sioctl.h.
|
|
|
412 For a given version of the system, this may depend on whether you have
|
|
|
413 X Windows or TCP/IP. Define or undefine NO_SIOCTL_H in config.h
|
|
|
414 according to whether you have the file.
|
|
|
415
|
|
|
416 Likewise, some versions have been known to need sys/ttold.h, sys/stream.h,
|
|
|
417 and sys/ptem.h included in sysdep.c. If your system has these files,
|
|
|
418 try defining NEED_PTEM_H in config.h if you have trouble without it.
|
|
|
419
|
|
|
420 You may find that adding -I/usr/X/include or -I/usr/netinclude or both
|
|
|
421 to CFLAGS avoids compilation errors on certain systems.
|
|
|
422
|
|
|
423 Some versions convince sysdep.c to try to use `struct tchars'
|
|
|
424 but define `struct tc' instead; add `#define tchars tc'
|
|
|
425 to config.h to solve this problem.

427 Iris 2500 and Iris 2500 Turbo (m68k-sgi-iris3.5 or m68k-sgi-iris3.6)
|
|
|
428
|
|
|
429 Version 18 was said to work; use m68k-sgi-iris3.5 for system version 2.5
|
|
|
430 and m68k-sgi-iris3.6 for system version 3.6.
|
|
|
431 Note that the 3030 is the same as the Iris 2500 Turbo.

|
435 Emacs 21.3 is reported to work on IRIX 6.5.x.
|
|
|
436
|
|
31927
|
437 You can build a 64-bit executable (with larger maximum buffer size)
|
|
|
438 on Irix 6.5 by specifying the 64-bit ABI using the `-64' compiler
|
|
|
439 flag or otherwise (see cc(1)). This may work on earlier Irix 6
|
|
|
440 systems if you edit src/s/irix6-0.h following irix6-5.h.
|
|
|
441
|
|
34881
|
442 If compiling with GCC on Irix 6 yields an error "conflicting types
|
|
|
443 for `initstate'", install GCC 2.95 or a newer version, and this
|
|
|
444 problem should go away. It is possible that this problem results
|
|
|
445 from upgrading the operating system without reinstalling GCC; so you
|
|
|
446 could also try reinstalling the same version of GCC, and telling us
|
|
|
447 whether that fixes the problem.

449 Mips (mips-mips-riscos, mips-mips-riscos4.0, or mips-mips-bsd)
|
|
|
450
|
|
|
451 The C compiler on Riscos 4.51 dumps core trying to optimize
|
|
|
452 parts of Emacs. Try without optimization or try GCC.
|
|
|
453
|
|
|
454 Meanwhile, the linker on that system returns success even if
|
|
|
455 there are undefined symbols; as a result, configure gets the
|
|
|
456 wrong answers to various questions. No work-around is known
|
|
|
457 except to edit src/config.h by hand to indicate which functions
|
|
|
458 don't exist.
|
|
|
459
|
|
|
460 Use mips-mips-riscos4.0 for RISCOS version 4.
|
|
|
461 Use mips-mips-bsd with the BSD world.
|
|
|
462
|
|
|
463 Note that the proper configuration names for DECstations are
|
|
|
464 mips-dec-ultrix and mips-dec-osf.
|
|
|
465
|
|
|
466 If you are compiling with GCC, then you must run fixincludes;
|
|
|
467 the alternative of using -traditional won't work because
|
|
|
468 the definition of SIGN_EXTEND_CHAR uses the keyword `signed'.
|
|
|
469
|
|
|
470 If the SYSV world is the default, then you probably need the following
|
|
|
471 line in etc/Makefile:
|
|
|
472
|
|
|
473 CFLAGS= -g -systype bsd43
|
|
|
474
|
|
|
475 Some operating systems on MIPS machines give SIGTRAP for division by
|
|
|
476 zero instead of the usual signals. The only real solution is to fix
|
|
|
477 the system to give a proper signal.
|
|
|
478
|
|
|
479 In the meantime, you can change init_data in data.c if you wish.
|
|
|
480 Change it to handle SIGTRAP as well as SIGFPE. But this will have a
|
|
|
481 great disadvantage: you will not be able to run Emacs under a
|
|
|
482 debugger. I think crashing on division by zero is a lesser problem.

|
484 dsg@mitre.org reported needing to use --x-libraries=/bsd43/usr/lib
|

|
485 on a riscos4bsd site. But it is not clear whether this is needed in

|
|
486 general or only because of quirks on a particular site.

489
|
|
|
490 This system works in 19.31, but if you don't link it with GNU ld,
|

502 in a NeXTStep 3.0 terminal window, and under the X server called

503 co-Xist. You may need to specify -traditional when src/Makefile

504 builds xmakefile.
|
|
|
505
|
|
|
506 NeXT users might want to implement direct operation with NeXTStep,
|
|

507 but from the point of view of the GNU project, that is a

|
|
|
522 19.33 has changes to support ptx 4 (a modified SVR4).
|
|
|
523
|
|
|
524 Emacs 19 should work on Dynix (BSD). However, if you compile with
|
|
|
525 the Sequent compiler, you may find Emacs does not restore the
|
|
|
526 terminal settings on exit. If this happens, compile with GCC.
|
|
|
527
|
|
|
528 Emacs 19.27 contains patches that should support
|
|
|
529 DYNIX/ptx 1.4 and 2.1 with the native cc compiler.
|
|
|
530
|
|
|
531 GCC can't compile src/process.c due to a non-standard Sequent asm
|
|
|
532 keyword extension supported by cc and used for the network byte/word
|
|
|
533 swapping functions in the PTX /usr/include/netinet/in.h file. GCC
|
|
|
534 2.5.8 includes the file <sys/byteorder.h> which can be included into
|
|
|
535 netinet/in.h to perform these byte/word swapping functions in the
|
|
|
536 same manner. Patches have been submitted to the FSF against GCC
|
|
|
537 2.6.0 to fix this problem and allow Emacs to be built with GCC.
|
|
|
538
|
|
|
539 If your machine does not have TCP/IP installed, you will have to edit the
|
|
|
540 src/s/ptx.h file and comment out #define TCPIP_INSTALLED.

544 Changes merged in 19.29. The version configured with
|
|
25852
|
545 `--with-x' works without any modifications, but `--with-x-toolkit'
|
|
|
546 works only if the Athena library and the Toolkit library are linked
|
|
|
547 statically. For this, edit `src/Makefile' after the `configure' run
|
|
|
548 and modify the lines with `-lXaw' and `-lXt' as follows:
|
|
|
549
|
|
|
550 LIBW= /usr/lib/libXaw.a
|
|
|
551 LIBXT= $(LIBW) -lXmu /usr/lib/libXt.a $(LIBXTR6) -lXext
|
|
|
552
|
|
|
553 In addition, `--with-x-toolkit=motif' works only
|
|
|
554 if the Motif library and the Toolkit library are linked statically.
|
|
|
555 To do this, edit `src/Makefile' after the `configure' run
|
|
|
556 and modify the lines with `-lXm' and `-lXt' as follows:
|
|
|
557
|
|
|
558 LIBW= /usr/lib/libXm.a /usr/ccs/lib/libgen.a

569 Some versions of the operating system give SIGTRAP for division by zero
|
|
|
570 instead of the usual signals. This causes division by zero
|
|
|
571 to make Emacs crash. The system should be fixed to give the proper signal.
|
|
|
572 Changing Emacs is not a proper solution, because it would prevent
|
|
|
573 Emacs from working under any debugger. But you can change init_data
|

|
574 in data.c if you wish.

|
|

603 implementation which causes Emacs to dump core when one of several

604 frames is closed. To avoid this, either install patch 108773-12
|
|
|
605 (for Sparc) or 108874-12 (for x86), or configure Emacs with the
|
|
|
606 `--with-xim=no' switch (you can use Leim input methods instead).

608 On Solaris 2.7, building Emacs with WorkShop Compilers 5.0 98/12/15
|
|
|
609 C 5.0 failed, apparently with non-default CFLAGS, most probably due to
|
|
|
610 compiler bugs. Using Sun Solaris 2.7 Sun WorkShop 6 update 1 C
|
|
|
611 release was reported to work without problems. It worked OK on
|
|
|
612 another system with Solaris 8 using apparently the same 5.0 compiler
|
|
|
613 and the default CFLAGS.

615 Emacs 21.1 and 21.2 built with Sun's ProWorks PC3.0.1 compiler on
|

616 Intel/Solaris 8 was reported to abort and dump core during startup.
|
|
|
617 Using GCC or a newer SUN compiler (Sun WokShop 6 update 2 C 5.3
|
|
|
618 2001/05/15) solves the problem.

620 Emacs 20.5 and later work on SPARC GNU/Linux with the 32-bit ABI.
|
|
|
621 As of release 2.95, GCC doesn't work properly with the 64-bit ABI
|
|
|
622 (applicable on UltraSPARC), but that isn't the default mode.

|
623
|
|
|
624 Emacs 20.3 fails to build on Solaris 2.5 if you use GCC 2.7.2.3.
|
|

625 Installing GCC 2.8 fixes the problem.

|
|
626
|
|
|
627 19.32 works on Solaris 2.4 and 2.5. On Solaris 2.5
|
|
|
628 you may need one of these patches to prevent Emacs from crashing
|
|
|
629 when it starts up:
|
|

|
|
|
633
|
|
|
634 There are reports that using SunSoft cc with -xO4 -xdepend produces
|
|
|
635 bad code for some part of Emacs.
|
|
|
636
|
|
|
637 Emacs works ok Sunos 4.1.x
|
|
|
638 provided you completely replace your C shared library
|
|
|
639 using one of the SunOS 4.1.x jumbo replacement patches from Sun.
|
|
|
640 Here are the patch numbers for Sunos 4.1.3:
|
|
|
641 100890-10 SunOS 4.1.3: domestic libc jumbo patch
|
|
|
642 100891-10 SunOS 4.1.3: international libc jumbo patch
|
|
|
643
|
|
|
644 Some people report that Emacs crashes immediately on startup when
|
|
|
645 used with a non-X terminal, but we think this is due to compiling
|
|
|
646 with GCC and failing to use GCC's "fixed" system header files.
|
|
|
647
|
|
|
648 Some Sun versions of X windows use the clipboard, not the selections,
|
|
|
649 for transferring text between clients. The Cut, Paste and Copy items
|
|
|
650 in the menu bar Edit menu work with the clipboard.
|
|
|
651
|
|
|
652 A user reported irreproducible segmentation faults when using 19.29
|
|
|
653 on Solaris 2.3 and 2.4 after compiling it with the Sun compiler.
|
|
|
654 The problem went away when GCC 2.7.0 was used instead. We do not know
|
|
|
655 whether anything in Emacs is partly to blame for this.
|
|
|
656
|
|
|
657 X11R6 is set up to make shared libraries only, on Sunos 4.
|
|
|
658 Therefore, in order to link Emacs, you need to create static X libraries.
|
|
|
659 To do this, rebuild X11 after setting
|
|
|
660 #define ForceNormalLib YES
|
|
|
661 #define SeparateSharedCompile YES
|
|
|
662 in site.def (after #ifdef AfterVendorCF).
|
|
|
663
|
|
|
664 If you compile with Sun's ANSI compiler acc, you need additional options
|
|
|
665 when linking temacs, such as
|
|
|
666 /usr/lang/SC2.0.1/values-Xt.o -L/usr/lang/SC2.0.1/cg87 -L/usr/lang/SC2.0.1
|
|
|
667 (those should be added just before the libraries) and you need to
|
|
|
668 add -lansi just before -lc. The precise file names depend on the
|
|
|
669 compiler version, so we cannot easily arrange to supply them.
|
|
|
670
|
|
|
671 On Solaris 2, you need to install patch 100947-02 to fix a system bug.
|
|
|
672 Presumably this patch comes from Sun. You must alter the definition of
|
|
|
673 LD_SWITCH_SYSTEM if your X11 libraries are not in /usr/openwin/lib.
|
|
|
674 You must make sure that /usr/ucblib is not in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
|
|
|
675
|
|
|
676 On Solaris 2.2, with a multiprocessor SparcCenter 1000, Emacs 19.17 is
|
|
|
677 reported to hang sometimes if it exits while it has one or more
|
|
|
678 subprocesses (e.g. the `wakeup' subprocess used by `display-time').
|
|
|
679 Emacs and its subprocesses become zombies, and in their zombie state
|
|
|
680 slow down their host and disable rlogin and telnet. This is most
|
|
|
681 likely due to a bug in Solaris 2.2's multiprocessor support,
|
|
|
682 rather than an Emacs bug.
|
|
|
683
|
|
|
684 On Solaris, do not use /usr/ucb/cc. Use /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc. Make
|
|
|
685 sure that /usr/ccs/bin and /opt/SUNWspro/bin are in your PATH before
|
|
|
686 /usr/ucb. (Most free software packages have the same requirement on
|
|
76933
|
687 Solaris.) With this compiler, use `/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc -E' as the
|
|
|
688 preprocessor. If this inserts extra whitespace into its output (see
|
|
|
689 the PROBLEMS file) then add the option `-Xs'.
|
|
25852
|
690
|
|
|
691 If you have trouble using open-network-stream, get the distribution
|
|
|
692 of `bind' (the BSD name-server), build libresolv.a, and link Emacs
|
|
|
693 with -lresolv, by copying the #definition of LIBS_SYSTEM in
|
|
|
694 src/s/sunos4-1.h to src/config.h. This problem is due to obsolete
|
|
|
695 software in the nonshared standard library.
|
|
|
696
|
|
|
697 Note that Emacs on a Sun is not really as big as it looks.
|
|
|
698 As dumped, it includes around 200k of zeros between the
|
|
|
699 original text section and the original data section
|
|
|
700 (now remapped as part of the text). These are never
|
|
|
701 swapped in.
|
|
|
702
|
|
|
703 To build a single Emacs that will run on Sun 2 and Sun 3
|
|
|
704 HARDWARE, just build it on the Sun 2.
|
|
|
705
|
|
|
706 On Sunos 4.1.3, the word is that Emacs can loop infinitely
|
|
|
707 on startup with X due perhaps to a bug in Sunos. Installing all of
|
|
|
708 these Sun patches fixes the problem. We don't know which of them
|
|
|
709 are really relevant.

757 Berkeley 4.1 (bsd4.1)
|
|
|
758
|
|
|

767 Works, on Vaxes at least.
|
|
|
768
|
|
|
769 Linux (actually GNU/Linux)
|
|
|
770
|
|
|
771 Most of the complete systems which use the Linux kernel are close
|
|
|
772 enough to the GNU system to be considered variant GNU systems. We
|
|
|
773 call them "Linux-based GNU systems," or GNU/Linux for short.
|
|
|
774
|
|
|
775 It is not coincidence that many of the other components used with
|
|
|
776 Linux--including GNU Emacs--were developed specifically for the GNU
|
|
|
777 project. The GNU project was launched in 1984 to develop a free
|
|
|
778 complete Unix-like operating system. To reach this goal, we had to
|
|
|
779 develop whatever system components were not available as freely
|
|
|
780 redistributable software from some other source.
|
|
|
781
|
|
|
782 The GNU project wants users of GNU/Linux systems to be aware of how
|
|
|
783 these systems relate to the GNU project, because that will help
|
|
|
784 spread the GNU idea that software should be free--and thus encourage
|
|
|
785 people to write more free software. See the file LINUX-GNU in this
|
|
|
786 directory for more explanation.

800 If you are using MMDF instead of sendmail, you need to remove
|
|
|
801 /usr/lib/sendmail or modify lisp/paths.el before compiling.
|
|
|
802 lisp/paths.el (which is loaded during the build) will attempt to use
|
|
|
803 sendmail if it exists.
|
|
|
804
|
|
|
805 If you are using SMAIL, you need to define the macro
|
|
|
806 SMAIL in config.h.

|
|
|
817 On some (maybe all) machines the library -lPW exists and contains
|
|
|
818 a version of `alloca'. On these machines, to use it, put
|
|
|
819 #define HAVE_ALLOCA
|
|
|
820 #define LIB_STANDARD -lPW -lc
|
|
|
821 in the `src/m/MACHINENAME.h' file for the machine.
|
|
|
822
|
|
|
823 If you find that the character Meta-DEL makes Emacs crash,
|
|
|
824 find where function init_sys_modes in sysdep.c sets sg.c_cc[VQUIT]
|
|
|
825 and make it store 7 there. I have as yet no evidence of whether
|
|
|
826 this problem, known in HP/UX, exists in other system V versions.
|
|
|
827
|
|
|
828 System V rel 2.2 (usg5.2.2)
|
|
|
829
|
|
|
830 In 5.2.2 AT&T undid, incompatibly, their previous incompatible
|
|
|
831 change to the way the nlist library is called. A different s- file
|
|
|
832 is used to enable the other interface.
|
|
|
833
|
|
|
834 They call themselves the right choice--can't they choose?
|
|
|
835
|
|
|
836 Emacs version 18 unexec is currently not working properly
|
|
|
837 on 5.2.2. Nobody knows why yet. A workaround is to define
|
|
|
838 NO_REMAP. It is not yet known whether this applies to all
|
|
|
839 machines running 5.2.2.
|
|
|
840
|
|
|
841 System V rel 3 (usg5.3)
|
|
|
842
|
|
|
843 Some versions of this system support ptys and BSD-style sockets.
|
|
|
844 On such systems, you should define HAVE_PTYS and HAVE_SOCKETS in config.h.
|
|
|
845
|
|
|
846 If you want to link Emacs with shared libraries, define
|
|
|
847 USG_SHARED_LIBRARIES.
|
|
|
848
|
|
|
849 You may have to add ANSI idempotence #-lines to your sys/types.h
|
|
|
850 file to get Emacs to compile correctly. This may be necessary on
|
|
|
851 other pre-ANSI systems as well.
|
|
|
852
|
|
|
853 On an AT&T 6386WGS using System V Release 3.2 and X11R3, the X support
|
|
|
854 cannot be made to work. Whether or not the GNU relocating malloc is
|
|
|
855 used, the symptom is that the first call Emacs makes to sbrk(0) returns
|
|
|
856 (char *)-1. Sorry, you're stuck with character-only mode. Try
|
|
77157
|
857 installing XFree86 to fix this.
|
|
25852
|
858
|
|
|
859 System V rel 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 (usg5.4)
|
|
|
860
|
|
|
861 Supported, including shared libraries for ELF, but ptys do not work
|
|
|
862 because TIOCGPGRP fails to work on ptys (but Dell 2.2 seems to have
|
|
|
863 fixed this). This failure is probably due to a misunderstanding of
|
|
|
864 the consequences of the POSIX spec: many system designers mistakenly
|
|
|
865 think that POSIX requires this feature to fail. This is untrue;
|
|
|
866 ptys are an extension, and POSIX says that extensions *when used*
|
|
|
867 may change the action of standard facilities in any fashion.
|
|
|
868
|
|
|
869 If you get compilation errors about wrong number of
|
|
|
870 arguments to getpgrp, define GETPGRP_NO_ARG.
|
|
|
871
|
|
|
872 The standard C preprocessor may generate xmakefile incorrectly. However,
|
|
|
873 /lib/cpp will work, so use `make CPP=/lib/cpp'. Standard cpp
|
|
|
874 seems to work OK under Dell 2.2.
|
|
|
875
|
|
|
876 Some versions 3 and earlier of V.4, on the Intel 386 and 860, had
|
|
|
877 problems in the X11 libraries. These prevent Emacs from working
|
|
|
878 with X. You can use Emacs with X provided your copy of X is based
|
|
|
879 on X11 release 4 or newer, or is Dell's 2.2 (which is a 4.0.3).
|
|
|
880 Unfortunately, the only way you can tell whether your X11 library is
|
|
|
881 new enough is to try compiling Emacs to use X. If emacs runs, your
|
|
|
882 X11 library is new enough.
|
|
|
883
|
|
|
884 In this context, GSV4 and GSV4i are alternate names for X11R4.
|
|
|
885 OL2.* is X11R3 based. OL3 is in between X11R3 and X11R4, and may or
|
|
|
886 may not work, depending on who made the Unix system. If the library
|
|
|
887 libXol is part of the X distribution, then you have X11R3 and Emacs
|
|
|
888 won't work with X.
|
|
|
889
|
|
|
890 Most versions of V.4 support sockets. If `/usr/lib/libsocket.so'
|
|
|
891 exists, your system supports them. If yours does not, you must add
|
|
|
892 #undef HAVE_SOCKETS in config.h, after the inclusion of s-usg5-4.h.
|
|
|
893 (Any system that supports Internet should implement sockets.)
|
|
|
894
|
|
|
895 Ultrix (bsd4.3)
|
|
|
896
|
|
|
897 Recent versions of Ultrix appear to support the features of Berkeley 4.3.
|
|
|
898 Ultrix was at the BSD 4.2 level for a long time after BSD 4.3 came out.
|
|
|
899
|
|
|
900 Ultrix 3.0 has incompatibilities in its X library if you have the
|
|
|
901 Ultrix version of X (UWS version 2.0). To solve them, you need to
|
|
|
902 prevent XvmsAlloc.o in Xlib from being used. Israel Pinkas says:
|
|
|
903
|
|
|
904 I added the following lines to config.h after the X defines:
|
|
|
905
|
|
|
906 #if defined(ultrix) && defined(X11)
|
|
|
907 #define OBJECTS_SYSTEM calloc.o
|
|
|
908 #endif
|
|
|
909
|
|
|
910 Then I ran the following:
|
|
|
911
|
|
|
912 ar x /usr/lib/libc.a calloc.o
|
|
|
913
|
|
|
914 The problem is said to be gone in UWS version 2.1.

916 VMS (vmsM.N)
|
|
|
917
|
|
|
918 Richard Levitte <levitte@e.kth.se> distributes a set of patches to
|
|
|
919 Emacs 18.59 to make it work nicely under VMS. Emacs 19 probably
|
|
|
920 won't work very well, or even compile. Levitte is working on a
|
|
|
921 port, so these problems should be fixed in the near future.
|
|
|
922
|
|
|
923 Note that Emacs for VMS is usually distributed in a special VMS
|
|
|
924 distribution. See the file ../vms/VMSINSTALL for info on moving
|
|
|
925 Unix distributions to VMS, and other VMS-related topics.

|

934 No special procedures should be needed to build a 64-bit Emacs. To
|
|
|
935 build a 32-bit Emacs, first ensure that the necessary 32-bit system
|
|
|
936 libraries and include files are installed. Then use:
|
|
|
937
|
|
|
938 env CC="gcc -m32" ./configure --build=i386-linux-gnu \
|
|
|
939 --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib
|
|
|
940
|
|
|
941 (using the location of the 32-bit X libraries on your system).
