Solaris Build Issues

I was hopeful when I saw that solaris fixes were in 1.8.10, but my
"problems" remain. I'll list what I have to do to get a build, and
perhaps you can see if these are OK to include without breaking other
platforms...

./configure <paths etc.> --disable-staticlibs --with-xpm --with-jpeg
--with-png

I want --disable-staticlibs so aterm et.al can use the shared libraries.

To make this build I need to:

edit autoconf/Makefile.common.lib.in:
   - use ld -G, not gcc
   OR remove "-Wl,-soname,$(DYNPROG).$(LIBVERMAJOR)"

	(It seems to pass 2 output filenames to ld)

   - use ln -f -s not ln -sf

	(solaris ln doesn't accept this)

then edit autoconf/Makefile.defines.in:
   - LIB_AFTERSTEP   = -L../../lib -lafterstep
   - LIB_ASIMAGE     = -L../../asimagelib -lasimage
   - LIB_WIDGETS     = -L../Script/Widgets -lWidgets
   - LIB_ASCONFIG    = -L../Config -lasConfig

and finally edit autoconf/Makefile.common.in:
   - remove $(LIBS_DEPEND) from $(PROG): as these are now -l parameters

This gives me:

:ldd afterstep
        libasimage.so =>         <path>/libasimage.so
        libafterstep.so =>       <path>/libafterstep.so
        libjpeg.so.62 =>         <path>/libjpeg.so.62
        libpng.so.2 =>   <path>/libpng.so.2
        libz.so.1.1.3 =>         <path>/libz.so.1.1.3
        libm.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libm.so.1
        libXext.so.0 =>  /usr/openwin/lib/libXext.so.0
        libX11.so.4 =>   /usr/openwin/lib/libX11.so.4
        libsocket.so.1 =>        /usr/lib/libsocket.so.1
        libnsl.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1
        libSM.so.6 =>    /usr/openwin/lib/libSM.so.6
        libICE.so.6 =>   /usr/openwin/lib/libICE.so.6
        libXpm.so.4.10 =>        /u/gyles/bin/lib/libXpm.so.4.10
        libc.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libc.so.1
        libucb.so.1 =>   /usr/ucblib/libucb.so.1
        libresolv.so.2 =>        /usr/lib/libresolv.so.2
        libelf.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libelf.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/libdl.so.1
        libmp.so.2 =>    /usr/lib/libmp.so.2
        /usr/platform/SUNW,Ultra-5_10/lib/libc_psr.so.1

Finally I note that 'make distclean' does not remove *.so, but 'make
clean' does. I suspect both should.

Thanks,

Gyles.
