- So far, I've managed to build all of the images for the new metamail rele=
- ase.
- I've come across the following:
- <nl><indent>For SysVr3.2, the manifest constant R_OK is defined in <lt>sy=
- s/unistd.h>. =
-
- This change is in metamail/mailto.c.
- <nl><nl>
-
- In <bold>ezview/ezview.c</bold>, the <bold>#include <lt>file.h></bold> mu=
- st follow the <bold>#include <lt>sys/types.h></bold>
- in the <bold>#ifdef SYSV</bold> section, so I moved it to below the <bold=
- >#endif</bold> for that bit.
- <nl><nl>
-
- For ISC SysVr3.2, the routine <italic>gethostname()</italic> (required by=
- <bold>metamail/mailto.c</bold>) is in the
- library <bold>/usr/lib/libinet.a</bold>. I added a new variable to the r=
- oot and subsidiary
- Makefiles, <bold>LDLIBS</bold>, which trails the other files and librarie=
- s on the cc command
- lines that produce executables.
- <nl></indent><nl><nl>
-
- I will send you context diffs of my changes tonight. This is my first tr=
- y
- of "mailto", so we'll see if it works. (I think it may have one of those=
-
- "missing TERMCAP entry" problems that richtext used to suffer from.)
- <nl><nl>
-
- Also, I believe that the copyright notice in some of the files (README)
- is out of date.
- <nl><nl>
-
- I'd send you the diffs now, except that I don't have a cdiff program on
- <bold>persoft.com
- </bold>so I figure I'll send it from
- <italic>gorgon.UUCP
- </italic>where I've got GNU diff.
