Has anyone successfully gotten RCS 5.5 to compile on SCO Xenix 386. I've
spent more time than I have trying to get it to compile without success.
Any pointers (or perhaps a config file for SCO Xenix) would be greatly
appreciated. I seem to be having a ton of problems with the header
files and the config not liking each other very much :-)
SCO Xenix 386 2.3.2
SCO Xenix 386 2.3.1b Development System
Thanks for the help...
Please email if you can. I will provide patch files if necessary...

Quick fix: find the bits in rcsbase.h labeled <stdio.h> and just comment them out. I compiled mine with GCC. Having GCC makes compiling programs off the net, etc much easier, so you might as well get it. It'll save you a lot of hassle fighting with SCO's compiler. Binaries + patches relative to 1.37.1 are available from unix.secs.oakland.edu:/pub/xenix/gcc/* and probably for anonymous UUCP from anomaly.sbs.com. unix.secs.oakland.edu: -- Ronald Khoo <ronald@robobar.co.uk> +44 81 991 1142 (O) +44 71 229 7741 (H)
