tron b99b4b6003 Revert most of revision 1.73: We cannot user_from_uid(3) or group_from_gid(3) unless the system also supports pwcache_userdb(3) and pwcache_groupdb(3). The build will use the hosts password and user database otherwise. Switch back to the old behaviour to only the native functions if they are all present. This fixes cross builds under Mac OS X and FreeBSD. Fix based on problem analysis provided by Akihiko Hayashi.		2009-11-11 21:53:46 +00:00

README

$NetBSD: README,v 1.12 2005/04/05 00:21:22 jmc Exp $

Special notes for cross-hosting a NetBSD build on certain platforms.  
Only those platforms which have been tested to complete a "build.sh" run
are listed.

All hosts must have a POSIX compatible sh. /bin/sh is assumed unless 
otherwise set. This can be overridden by setting HOST_SH in the environment.

In addition all hosts must provide the following local tools:

gzip

=====

NetBSD:

* _NETBSD_SOURCE is *not* to be defined/pulled in during compat/tools builds.
  compat_defs.h will error out if it finds it defined. 

HP-UX:

* zlib must be available.
  This will be fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat.

=====

LINUX:

* Tested on RedHat Linux 7.1 (i386).
  Tested on RedHat Linux 7.3 (i686) on 16 Sep 2002.  Requires "LANG=C"
  in the environment.

* Tested on Redhat Linux 8.0 (i686) in Fall 2003. Requires no special settings.

* Tested on Redhat ES3 and AS3 in spring of 2004. Requires no special settings.

* The gcc (and libstdc++, if needed) package must be installed, along
  with the typical system development packages (glibc-devel, etc.).

* The ncurses-devel package must be installed (for nbinfo).

* The zlib and zlib-devel packages must be installed.  This will be
  fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat.

=====

MACOS
  Requires a case sensitive filesystem such as UFS

* Tested on 10.2.8 with Dec 2002 Developer Tools
    - may require a fix to /usr/bin/join, netbsd's join should work fine
* Tested on 10.3 with xcode 1.5
    - compiles fine out of the box

=====

NETBSD (earlier releases):

* Tested on NetBSD 1.5.2 (machine-independently).

* Should need no special setup.

=====

SOLARIS:

* Tested on Solaris/x86 8 (5.8) with gcc 2.95.2 and Solaris/sparc 8 (5.8)
  with gcc 3.2 (not yet tested with SUNWspro).

* $HOST_CC needs to be set properly (for gcc, it should be set to "gcc",
  otherwise the improper /usr/ucb/cc may be invoked by accident).

* The SUNWzlib package (or a built version of zlib visible to $HOST_CC,
  such as SMCzlib from sunfreeware.com) must be installed.  This will be
  fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat.

* Needs the following paths, in this order, in $PATH:

      /usr/xpg4/bin
      /usr/ccs/bin
      <path to host C and C++ compilers>
      /usr/bin

  /usr/ucb may optionally be placed before /usr/bin, per your preference,
  but /usr/ucb *MUST NOT* be before /usr/ccs/bin or before the path to
  the host C and C++ compilers.
