Archive-name: gnu/distribution/gna/1990-12-19 Original-posting-by: adesign!loic@UUNET.UU.NET (Loic Dachary) Original-subject: GNA distribute GNU for SCO Unix Reposted-by: emv@ox.com (Edward Vielmetti) Hello gnuers, Since it seems to be of interest for some people, I would like to announce that the GNA association (Paris, France) distribute and maintain binaries for SCO Unix. The distribution is made of two physical files on a QIC 150 cartridge (we can distribute it as two QIC 24 if necessary). The first file contains binaries and must be downloaded in /usr/local. The second one contains the corresponding sources. Here are the products you can find on the tape : bash-1.05 find-2.0 grep-1.5 tar-1.09 bison-1.11 flex-2.3.6 groff-0.6 makedep texi2roff c-align g++-1.37.1 hd patch uuencode compress-4.0 gas-1.37 kermit uutraf-1.2 cproto gcc-1.37.1 libg++-1.37.2 diff-1.14 gdb-3.6 lispref printf dist-18.55 gnulocal-0.0 make-3.59 shar-3.49 The two unusual products are hd (an hexdump printer) and gnulocal (a bunch of lisp contributions for emacs). Most of the texinfo files have been installed under the info directory of emacs. You can obtain the binary+sources tape for ~$100. The address of the association is : GNA c/o Axis Design 119 rue de Flandre 75019 Paris France Tel: +33 1 40 35 20 20 Fax: +33 1 40 35 18 88 The upgrade mechanism is even simpler since you just have to send a cartridge with enough stamps to send it back. We have developped a set of utilities (distributed with the sources) to ease the integration of new versions. This will help us to maintain all these utilities. You can therefore expect an upgrade every two month. This set of products have also been compiled for SunOs 3.5 (3/50), SunOs 4.0.3 (3/80), Unisoft 1.3 (Motorola 3600), Lectra 1.1 (Microlec 2030) and will be available for Unigraph 68030 at the end of January. All these binaries are available at the same conditions. I hope this will help. -- Loic Dachary loic@adesign.uucp or floic@afp.uucp Voice +33 1 40 35 20 20
