[comp.sources.d] TRN compiling & running, but no threads!

mark@shl.com (Mark Batten) (12/10/90)

Sorry about the previous posting with this subject - I don't know where
the content went....

I received the recent TRN posting in comp.sources.unix,
the reposting of part 09, and patch1.

I have compiled the whole thing, apparently without problems.
(Actually, our system uses void for signal, but the test in Configure
failed to properly catch that.  I haven't yet figured out why - the
grep looks OK.  I just edited config.h manually for this.)

I then executed "mthreads all" (NOTE: my threads database is NOT stored
with the news - it is stored in a separate file system).

When I run "trn" (which is set to default to -X) or "trn -X",
+ and = provide identical output.  Also, t at the article
selection level gives "No article tree is available".

I assumed that "mthreads all" might not have been sufficient,
so I executed "mthreads -f".  trn still provides no thread info.

Has anyone else seen this problem?  Any suggestions as to what config
parameters or mthreads parameters I have not specified correctly?

(I notice TRN, PART 10, has been reposted.  I have not picked that up yet.)

Any help would be appreciated.
