Well, Solaris 9 ships with a CD-ROM that includes a lot of GNU utilities (and their source, relax) compiled using the Sun compiler, built into relocatable Sun packages (though letting them be installed in the default /opt/sfw makes plenty of sense). That works pretty well. And it's the reason I suggested you use Solaris 9, rather than 8, earlier. The list of packages on that CD-ROM is attached, as reference. > If anyone can point me to a download site for precompiled binaries of > these tools, that would be great. http://www.sunfreeware.com/ They install forcefully into /usr/local and are frequently out of date.

It's INSTALL document tells you how, last I checked. If not, get the sunfreeware version. Then building should work fine. (Or you could pay for Sun's compiler and produce smaller binaries that ran faster. Sun's CC still makes far better sparc, especially sparc64, code than GCC by a long shot. But it's pretty expensive.) -- gabriel rosenkoetter gr@eclipsed.net system SFWa2ps GNU a2ps - Any to PostScript filter system SFWaalib aalib - ASCII Art Library system SFWaconf autoconf - GNU autoconf system SFWafio afio -
