I saw a couple of problems that people were having compiling htdig on IRIX.
The first is configure problems, but I don't really have any advice. I didn't
have any problems there...everything went off without a hitch.
The second is a conflict between o32 and n32 libraries. There are two possible
solutions for this...you can either compile with the -32 option (cc -32 and CC
-32) or edit the Makefile.config.in file before you run configure so you look
for libraries in /usr/lib32 instead of /usr/lib...for some reason, although the
new MIPS compiler defaults to n32, some of the libraries in /usr/lib are o32.
There is a page at
http://toolbox.sgi.com/TasteOfDT/public/freeware/shared/howto.html that gives a
few hints for compiling code on IRIX. The tip about libsocket, libsnl, etc was
especiall helpful in getting rid of the multitude of "definition of <blah> in
libsnl.so preempts that in libc.so" warnings.
Hope this helps.
