I've installed a *BETA* version of PCLU for Linux/ELF.
If you have a machine running RedHat Linux-Athena, you should be
able to use it by running:
add PCLU; PCLU
The version of clucc in the 6.035 locker has also been build
to work with ELF.
Note that this version of PCLU may have some bugs left in it.
In order to use the new version of PCLU, the @sys value
on your machine must be i386_linux2. You can check the @sys
value with:
fs sysname
If your @sys value is i386_linux1 (which is what is should be on old
a.out systems), you will get the old a.out version of PCLU which
should work just as it always has without any change.
I've tested it on the following systems: RedHat-Athena 3.0.3,
RedHat-Athena 4.0.0, Slackware a.out, and Slackware ELF.
Note that some of the additional libraries for the beta version
may be missing some functions which haven't been implemented yet.
Many thanks to Dorothy Curtis for doing the port!
Send any bugs to linux-dev@mit.edu and questions to linux-help@mit.edu.
