Hi, you're receiving this mail because you have bits on one of the
lockers which needs updating because the Athena release has "glue"
symlinks pointing to it which won't work without certain changes.
(You might also be getting this mail because I cc'd it to
release-team.)
The following changes need to be made:
* help (cfields): We need a symlink arch/sun4x_55 -> sun4m_54.
We also need a symlink help -> olh in arch/sun4m_54
and arch/sgi_53.
* olc-stock (olc-stock, olc_adm): We need a symlink
arch/sun4x_55 -> sun4m_54.
* sis (cscrib, thorne, sturner, hschan): We need the arch
directory set up. Since the registrar's office may
not be familiar with the new locker set up (see "man
lockers" on an Athena machine), here are some commands
which should do what's needed:
attach sis
cd /mit/sis
mkdir arch arch/sgi_53 arch/sun4m_54
ln -s sun4x_55 arch/sun4m_54
ln -s ../../sgibin arch/sgi_53/bin
ln -s ../../sun4bin arch/sun4m_54/bin
* /afs/athena.mit.edu/system/config/tellme (afsreq): We need a
symlink arch/sun4x_55 -> sun4m_54.
* xmit (facdev, miki): We need a symlink arch/sun4x_55 ->
sun4m_54. I guess xinfo hasn't ever worked on the
SGIs.
* afsuser (afsdev): We need a set of Solaris 2.5 binaries,
which requires getting them tested and, possibly,
built from source. (We should probably convene a
meeting to decide if we still want to be building
client binaries since we no longer have any local
source changes.)
