Rating

3 points (out of 4)

Rating scheme: 4 points means the source builds seamlessly on Solaris Express (OpenSolaris). Points are subtracted as follows:

  • Minus 1 if the source doesn't come with an automated way to localize the build (e.g. configure)
  • Minus 1 if the source won't compile with Sun's cc (this usually means the code is gcc-centric)
  • Minus 1 if a minor patch is required, or
  • Minus 2 if a major patch(es) is required

cd ettercap-NG-0.7.3


# This source is gcc-centric, therefore...
export CC=/usr/sfw/bin/gcc
# export CFLAGS="%optflags"
export CFLAGS="-O4 -fPIC -DPIC -Xlinker -i -fno-omit-frame-pointers"

export LDFLAGS="-Wl,-zignore -Wl,-zcombreloc -Wl,-Bdirect"

            --mandir=/usr/share/man \
	    --enable-gtk \
            --sysconfdir=/etc

# I'm pretty sure that if ncurses and/or pcre are installed,
# those features will be automatically enabled at build-time.
# (not tested though.)
