[biz.sco.general] WANTED: GNU C, C++, etc for SCO UNIX SysV 3.2.2

albers@ka3ovk (Jon Albers) (06/04/91)

I am looking for a complete COMPLIEABLE copy of the source code for the GNU
utilities (g- cc, c++, make, awk, grep, etc..) which are READY TO COMPILE
under SCO UNIX SysV/386 3.2.2.  I have made this request before, and have
gotten fragments of code, and diffs for versions of the code which I cannot
find, etc.  I have been able to get some of them working, but I really need
ALL of them in a READY TO GO package.  I am not a programmer, so patching
and porting code is not a strong point with me, so I am asking for HELP!

I know someone, somewhere out there must have this stuff working.  Please,
Please, PLEASE contact me if you do.  I am willing to call long distance
to uucp/download the stuff.

							Jon

I'm interested in the same things, but can also provide space on at least
a uucp-acessible archive-site.   I already  have Roell's X386 server (with
the X11R4 distribution) available (no SCO binaries yet).

So, if anyone is interested, I can do the following:

(1)  ftp the sources for various FSF applications from the archives, and
     then either ftp or uucp the SCO patches and place them in the archive.

(2)  make available items for ftp on a request basis (the plan to put
     (sir-alan.UUCP fell through, victim of budget cuts).

(3)  Make the SCO patches available via a mail-based archive server.

uunet.uu.net seems to wipe the X386 stuff off pretty quickly; I assume
that they must have a space crunch.
