I'd submit an electronic SPR for this if DEC had them.
ULTRIX V4.1 (Rev. 52) DS5400 has many dangling symlinks in the cmplrs dir:
Under /usr/lib/cmplrs/:
cc2.0:
Unsatisfied Symbolic Links:
f772.0 pc2.0
cc2.1:
Unsatisfied Symbolic Links:
as2.1
f772.1:
Unsatisfied Symbolic Links:
as2.1 pc2.1 upas upas2.1
as2.1 is distributed as a symlink that points to itself; not very useful:
/usr/etc/subsets/COMU4BACKEND200.inv:0 5 00000 0 0 120755 3/2/90
200 s ./usr/lib/cmplrs/cc2.1/as2.1 as2.1 COMU4BACKEND200

Thanks for sending in the comment internally and saving me the grief of finding a typewriter for the SPR form. >} as2.1 is distributed as a symlink that points to itself; not very useful: >} >} /usr/etc/subsets/COMU4BACKEND200.inv:0 5 00000 0 0 120755 3/2/90 >} 200 s ./usr/lib/cmplrs/cc2.1/as2.1 as2.1 COMU4BACKEND200 > > Could be another hook for a layered product. DEC C maybe? But what good is a symlink that points to itself? # cat /usr/lib/cmplrs/cc2.1/as2.1 /usr/lib/cmplrs/cc2.1/as2.1: Too many levels of symbolic links I might believe you about the other links that point to things that aren't there; yes, maybe, layered products. But why can't those symlinks be distributed with the layers, not left dangling into nowhere? Having stuff like that around makes the Ultrix 4.1 distribution look sloppy and messes up simple things like "cp -r" or "size *". Not tidy. Yuk ugh etc. -- -IAN! (Ian! D.

Check in /usr/bin: you should see a shell script called pgmrvers. If you do, run it and see if it fixes the problem. Frank

>From the list of compilers you gave, I'm assuming that you have both >Fortran and Pascal installed. Nope. Those dangling symlinks come with the base subset right out of the box: # grep /usr/lib/cmplrs/cc2.0/pc2.0 /usr/etc/subsets/*.inv /usr/etc/subsets/UDTBASE410.inv:0 8 00000 0 0 120777 8/28/90 410 s ./usr/lib/cmplrs/cc2.0/pc2.0 ../pc2.0 UDTBASE410 -- -IAN!
