Building apr on sinix mips

Hi,

Posted to dev@apr.apache.org and users@subversion.tigris.org.

I am primarily trying to get a subversion client running on Sinix MIPS:

bash-2.04$ uname -a
SINIX-N erp 5.43 C4001 RM400 1/128 R4000

but running into a lot of problems in apr. Initially I ran configure for
subversion but it hangs during configure for apr. So I went to apr.apache.org
and got apr 0.9.4 thinking I could configure apr separately and then
tell subversion about the separate apr. I ran into a couple of problems with
apr 0.9.4:

1. cpp on sinix cannot process .h files.
   This affects the line below in the top level makefile:

 $(CPP) $(ALL_CPPFLAGS) $(ALL_INCLUDES) export_vars.h | sed -e
's/^\#[^!]*//' | sed -e '/^$$/d' >> $@

   Given export_vars.h only contained:

  apr_month_snames
  apr_day_snames

  I changed this line to:

  cat export_vars.h | sed -e 's/^\#[^!]*//' | sed -e '/^$$/d' >> $@

  which got me past this.

2. utimbuf not defined

   For Sinix, sys/types.h and utime.h are required for utime.

Anyway, apr 0.9.4 builds and installs OK after that BUT now I find subversion
needs 0.9.5 and I cannot find that on apr.apache.org (unless it is one of those
snapshots). Any ideas?

Also, the configure caching mechanism for subversion 1.0.2 seems to fail with
/dev/null is not a file. This is something to do with attempts to copy the
configure cache down into the subversion dependencies and load it in the 
dependent configure. I think I've got around this (perhaps incorrectly) by
deleting:

if test -r "$cache_file"; then
  echo "loading cache $cache_file"
  . $cache_file
else
  echo "creating cache $cache_file"
  > $cache_file
fi

everything but > $cache_file

This problem looks like it may be fixed in subversion 1.0.3 as I'm not having
the same issue in 1.0.3.

Any pointers for how to get apr and subversion running on sinix would be
greatly appreciated.

Jean-frederic,

Thanks for that. It helped but the problem seemed to move to the configure for
neon where that hung (and I could not see a similar issue in that configure).
I've now configured apr, apr-util and neon separately in the subversion tree
then configured subversion with:

CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -ltrio -lsocket -lnsl"
./configure  --with-apr=/usr/local/apr/bin/apr-config
--with-apr-util=/usr/local/apr --with-neon=/usr/local

and finally got a working svn.

Thanks again for your help.

That is a problem in the configure of subversion.
I have worked it around by changing the configure:

Well when I was building 1.0.2 it didn't work but it has taken so long to get
this building, 1.0.3 and now I see 1.0.4 have come out.

Which I've done now. It would appear configuring and building apr, apr-util and
neon separately then using 

--with-apr=/usr/local/apr/bin/apr-config --with-apr-util=/usr/local/apr
--with-neon=/usr/local

works for me.

No. There is no automake or autoconf on this machine

See email in this thread from jean-frederic clere as it included some fixes to
configure. They helped me but it was not the final solution as the hang I

I wasn't using 1.0.4. Originally it was 1.0.2 then after a week of fighting
that on and off 1.0.3 came out. I'm not sure I get this problem in 1.0.3 as by
then I had started configuring and building apr, apr-util and neon separately.

I'm now stuck with AIX 4.1 but only a few more platforms after that to go.
BTW, I've reported http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29170 in
APR re adding -Wl,-brtl to compile lines during configure which does not work
with the AIX 4.1 native compiler.

Currently I have svn on:

o various linux
o sco unixware 7
o solaris 2.8 sparcv9
o AIX 5.1L
o HP-UX 11 parisc2
o Solaris 2.5 sparc
o Solaris 2.8 x86
o AIX 4.3
o sco unixware 2.1.3
o sco openserver
o HP-UX Itanium
o HP-UX 10.10 parisc1
o tru64 alpha
o freebsd
o sinix mips

and still have MAC OS X, QNX (various), Windows Services for UNIX (interix) and
OpenVMS (last because I think there is no chance - but if anyone knows better
please let me know).

Anything I can do to assist with 29169 or 29170 please let me know.

That is fixed already for 0.9.5 and in the 0.9.5-snapshot included in

I'd try and use the APR snapshot included in the SVN tarball since it's
more recent.

I'm a bit confused by this one: did you regenerate the configure script? 
At least subversion-1.0.4/configure seems to cope with this correctly:

if test -r "$cache_file"; then
  # Some versions of bash will fail to source /dev/null (special
  # files actually), so we avoid doing that.
  if test -f "$cache_file"; then
...

not the text you included below?

Can you file a bug on this one?

That is fixed already for 0.9.5 and in the 0.9.5-snapshot included in
recent SVN tarballs AFAIK...

I'd try and use the APR snapshot included in the SVN tarball since it's
more recent.
