Hi All,
After failing to get 2.8.0 to build on a gcc3.3 (Fedora) based machine
here, I thought I'd give 2.7.6 and the compat -libs & -gcc another try.
This worked like a charm for me.
The packages needed are:
compat-gcc-7.3-2.96.118.i386.rpm
compat-gcc-c++-7.3-2.96.118.i386.rpm
compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.118.i386.rpm
compat-libstdc++-devel-7.3-2.96.118.i386.rpm
These rpms are included on disc3 of the Fedora Core 1 distribution and
disc1 of Redhat9.
If you don't have access to them, they are fairly easy to find (google).
I tried building them from the source rpms too but that failed on a gcc
bootstrap problem that I couldn't fix.
With these packages installed, it's just a case of unpacking the
polygraph tarball as usual and configuring by entering:
# CXX=g++296 ./configure
This way the configure script picks up the right compiler and puts it in
the right places in all the Makefiles, after configure finishes just do
make && make install as normal. I've not had a chance to do extensive
testing yet, but all seems well so far (we actually run polygraph on
BSD, but the log extractors etc. are needed on the monitor machine).
Hope this is useful for someone - YMMV ;)
Cheers
Bryn
