Solaris Forte 64 bit

Use this for your PATH

PATH=/bin/sparcv9:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/dt/bin:/usr/ccs/bin/sparcv9:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin/sparcv9:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/usr/java/bin:/cis/bin/sparcv9:/cis/bin:/cis/sbin

Create a unique build directory and configure it there.

Old stuff follows...

Solaris

Ensure that /gnu/bin and /dirs/bin and /dcs/bin aren't in your path for this build. Do not install if more than a few tests during gmake check fail.

   PATH=/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/cis/bin ./configure --prefix=/cis
   PATH=/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/cis/bin gmake
   PATH=/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/cis/bin gmake check
   PATH=/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/cis/bin gmake:/usr/local/bin sudo install
   PATH=/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/cis/bin gmake clean

Now, build it again, allowing it to find the GCC tools by ensuring that /gnu/bin is in your path. Set the prefix accordingly.

   PATH=/gnu/bin:/cis/bin:/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin ./configure --prefix=/gnu
   PATH=/gnu/bin:/cis/bin:/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin gmake
   PATH=/gnu/bin:/cis/bin:/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin gmake check
   PATH=/gnu/bin:/cis/bin:/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin:/usr/local/bin sudo gmake install
   PATH=/gnu/bin:/cis/bin:/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/opt/SUNWspro/bin gmake clean
