Date: Thu, 22 Sep 1994 11:59:34 +0500 From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@MIT.EDU> To: bugs@MIT.EDU, alexp@MIT.EDU The bug I reported to Purify has been resolved (they have an impressive turnaround! :-). It turns out to be a problem with the Cygnus ar and ranlib commands. If you use the FSF ar and ranlib commands, the resulting library is not compatible with Purify. You have to use the ar and ranlib in /usr/ccs/bin. I've asked Purify to let me know what the FSF utilities are doing "wrong", so we can forward this off to Cygnus. - Ted ------- Forwarded Message Date: Tue, 20 Sep 1994 17:37:11 +0500 From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@MIT.EDU> To: support@pure.com Cc: pure-gnats@pure.com In-Reply-To: Helen Bragg's message of Tue, 20 Sep 1994 14:22:42 -0700, <199409202122.AA00781@pure> Subject: Re: Reqid: s15915 [Re: purify-solaris/5264] Address: 1 Amherst St., Cambridge, MA 02139 Phone: (617) 253-8091 Content-Length: 924 Date: Tue, 20 Sep 1994 14:22:42 -0700 From: bragg@pure.com (Helen Bragg) Theodore, Development looked at libkrb5.a and has this question: How was the archive created? The format does not appear to comply with the SVR4 spec. Did you use the normal Solaris ar utility, or did you perhaps use a version of ar from GNU or some other source? Thanks in advance for the info! Ah, OK; that must be it. It just so happens that the first "ar" that's in my path is from a GNU ar, from Cygnus Support's 1994 Q2 release. I hadn't realized this was a problem, since SunSoft's cc and ld have no problem dealing with its output. If you can send me the nature of how the format does not comply with the SVR4 release, I will be glad to pass that information on to Cygnus. (If Purify could be made to be more tolerant of GNU ar produced archive files, that would be quite nice as well.) - Ted ------- End Forwarded Message
