I'm hitting dumb stuff that arises from my unfamiliarity with working
in a 32/64-bit split universe on a Solaris box.
Is there some magic phrase I can tell configure that will make it
realise I want to pick up the 32-bit /opt/mysql50/include/mysql
include files, and not the include files that lives at
/usr/sfw/include/mysql that it seems to prefer? I can go around
editing Makefiles, or even install my own 32-bit mysql client, but
there has to be a better way.
Or maybe the information here is out of date:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Toolserver/For_users#software
It suggests that I should link to the /opt/mysql50 code for a 32-bit build.
if there's some amazing advantage to compiling all my code for 64
bits, please feel free to convince me. In private email. I think it
more likely that I'm just being dumb.
several users have complained about Zedler not having a GNU userland.
in an attempt to make the system easier to use for these people, some
changes are being made to where software is installed.
the most important change is the GNU software installed in /opt/csw/bin/
will be moving. utilities which conflict with the base OS, such as
"ls", will move to /usr/local/gnu/bin/. everything else (including
non-GNU software currently installed in /opt/csw) will move to
/usr/local/bin/.
as a result of this, if you want to use the GNU utilities by default,
you can place /usr/local/gnu/bin/ in your path prior to any other
directories (such as /usr/bin/). if you don't want this, don't change
anything.
users using script interpreters (including Perl) currently installed in
/opt/csw/ will need to change their paths to the new locations these
tools will be at.
hopefully, once this is done, things will be a lot happier. please let
me know if anything isn't working as it should.

I'd like to use the php extension "pspell", which appears to not be
installed. Could we get that installed? :)

Am I being dense, or is there no GNU source level debugger (gdb)
installed on zedler?
I've tried using dbx to load an image, but it just spawns the
executable and then seems to hang forever waiting for it.
Hi all
while we are waiting for new disks, it would be quite useful to have
static dumps of two or three small wikipedias (like nds, for instance)
on zedler, for testing.
Would that be possible? I would at least be able to show people the
tools i'm making, even if they are not very useful with so little data.
Thanks,
Daniel

i've been fiddling with OpenGrok, the OpenSolaris source code browser:
http://tools.wikimedia.de/source/xref/
maybe it would be nice to use this to publish the source of people's tools (it
does cross-referencing, searching and so on as well as browsing).
anyone interested?
(downsides: it doesn't support PHP; but that shouldn't be too hard to add.)
