[Scilab-Dev] Scilab 5 on Solaris

[Jonathan Blanchard]

I just rebuild Scilab using gcc 4.3.1 and sun ld. all build well ( I
didn't build the gui and java-sci). Make install still does not work
but with a different error this time. See at the end of the e-mail for
the output. I tried make install -k to tell make to continue anyways
but when I try to run Scilab afterward I get a core dump but not the
error about localization anymore. I might have to run scilab in a
debugger but I do not exactly know the best course of action for this
as I rarely use GDB or MDB outside an IDE so I'm not too comfortable
with using a debugger from the command line. So if anyone got some
pointers that would be appreciated.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Libraries have been installed in:
   /export/home/jo/local/scilab/lib/scilab

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
     during execution
   - use the `-RLIBDIR' linker flag

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.
