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

How to build ganglia-3.0.3 on Solaris Express

Configure and compile steps (on x86 hardware)

/usr/bin/gzip -dc ganglia-3.0.3.tar.gz | /usr/sfw/bin/gtar xf -

cd ganglia-3.0.3


# 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"

./configure --prefix=/usr  \
            --mandir=/usr/share/man

# If gmetad support is desired, enable:
