[comp.mail.mush] Looking for 6.5 to 7.? patches

kemp@convex1.convex.com (Phil Kemp) (04/08/90)

I have the sources for mush 6.5 and am looking for the patches to bring
it up to version 7.0.?.

Alternately an ftp site with the current version. I have checked most of the
common ones.

Thanks.

There is no such kit, the extent of the changes was too great.

In a week, modulo moderation delays, Mush 7.1 should be appearing on
one of the sources newsgroups.

First, get 7.0 from one of the ftp sites above.  Next, edit lock.c and
change all references to the MMDF define into references to LCKDFLDIR.
You should then be able to compile following the instructions in the
README and in makefile.xenix.  DOT_LOCK is not needed, and neither is
LCKDFLDIR *for Xenix* (others may still need it).  I.e., the change you
need to make to lock.c for SCO's MMDF is to omit all references to the
MMDF libraries; this was pointed out recently by Marc Rouleau, our MMDF
consultant, and is fixed in 7.1.
