Compiling aMule/aMuleWeb on Solaris Express (11 beta) x86

  • Use the pkg-get script to install some required libraries, which do not come with Solaris:
    • autoconf
    • automake
    • flex (2.5.33 or newer)
    • gd
    • GNU gettext (ggettext)

These packages will install to /opt/csw tree

  • Set your path like this:
 PATH=/usr/local/bin:/opt/csw/bin:/usr/sfw/bin:/usr/bin
  • Set these environment variables:
 CPPFLAGS='-I/usr/local/include -I/opt/csw/include -I/usr/sfw/include'
 LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/lib -R/usr/local/lib -L/opt/csw/lib -R/opt/csw/lib -L/usr/sfw/lib -R/usr/sfw/lib'
 LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/opt/csw/lib:/usr/sfw/lib:/usr/lib
  • Symlink the GNU utilities in /usr/sfw/bin to their "right" names (gar=ar, gas=as, gld=ld, gmake=make, ggrep=grep, gtar=tar, etc...) somewhere in your path. I sym-linked them to their same directory (/usr/sfw/bin).
 Hint: this configure line worked for me: ./configure --enable-unicode --with-gtk=2
 Note: blastwave has packages for wxGTK that are more or less up to date, however their unicode support is marked as experimental only, and have not
 been tested to work with aMule. YMMV.
                                      
 Hint: this configure line worked for me: ./configure
 Hint 1: this configure line worked for me: ./configure CFLAGS="-DSPARC_SOLARIS" --disable-samples
 Hint 2: I needed to add this at the beginning of the file upnp/src/api/upnpapi.c, along with the other #include lines:
         #include <sys/sockio.h>
  • If you are compiling a SVN version of aMule, run the autogen.sh script. If not, ignore this step (you should first edit this file, and change the first line from #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash else, it will fail with an error.
  • Configure aMule. I used these options, but feel free to remove the ones you don't need:
 ./configure --enable-webserver --enable-amule-daemon --enable-amulecmd --enable-amule-gui --enable-cas --enable-wxcas --enable-alc --enable-alcc
 --disable-embedded-crypto --with-crypto-prefix=/usr/local/ --enable-geoip --enable-optimize --disable-debug
  • Type gmake, press <ENTER> and hope for the best.
  • If compilation went OK, install aMule with: gmake install.
  • ENJOY!

This guide was used for compiling aMule and aMuleWeb on Solaris Express for x86. I have no idea if it will work or not on previous Solaris releases or on SPARC, but it should. Also, if you got aMule compiled using other Solaris than Solaris Express (11 beta), please tell me how you did, or if this guide worked for you or any extra things you had to do, etc.

Last, but not least, this guide works only for aMule versions (either SVN or release) starting March 7th/2005, no previous aMule version will compile on Solaris following this guide.

Thanks goes to all the aMule dev team, specially Kry, who helped me a lot, and ken for the CPPFLAGS tip.
