Hi, all:

I spent some time this weekend to upgrade to b19 and port several small
utilities. The following is the list of success port absent in Mr. Hirmke's
update list:


------------------------< snip snip snip >-----------------------------
[to build termcap 1.3 with b19]

0. gunzip termcap-1.3.tar; tar -xvf termcap-1.3.tar; cd termcap-1.3
1. ./configure
2. change in Makefile:
   add -D_STRICT_ANSI in DEFS so that it looks like
   DEFS =  -D_STRICT_ANSI -DHAVE_STRING_H=1 ...( omitted )
3. make
4. mkdir /usr/include; mkdir /usr/lib
5. make include
6. cd ..; rm -r termcap-1.3.tar termcap-1.3

------------------------< snip snip snip >-----------------------------
[to build Ghostview]

0. tar -xzvf ghostview-1.5.tar.gz; cd ghostview-1.5
1. xmkmf
2. change in file Dir.c ( comment several lines):
/*
#if defined(SVR4) || defined(SYSV) || defined(USG) || defined(__osf__)
*/

#include <dirent.h>

/*
#else */ /* defined(SVR4) || defined(SYSV) || defined(USG) */ /*
#include <sys/dir.h>
#define dirent direct
#endif */ /* defined(SVR4) || defined(SYSV) || defined(USG) */ /*
*/

3. make
4. make install
5. cd..; rm ghostview-1.5


I hope this is of some use.

Hirmke, do you mind putting them into your update list ? I find your UPD
list very useful.

By the way, I can not find the source code of ncurse-4.1 but only
ncurse-4.2. The compilation failed with the process in your list. The error
is related to one missing file. I may have time to get through it next
weekend.

Sincerely,
Wei Ku
