RE: v2.3.10 build fails, pcreposix problems

Upgrading PCRE to v7.4 fixed the problem.  (Previous version was v6.5)

Subject: v2.3.10 build fails, pcreposix problems

 

When trying to build Cyrus IMAP v2.3.10 on a Solaris 9 system, I get the following error:

 

gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/cyrus/cyrus-imapd-2.3.10/sieve'

../com_err/et/compile_et ./sieve_err.et

In file included from comparator.h:33,

                 from sieve.y:38:

gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/cyrus/cyrus-imapd-2.3.10/sieve'

gmake: *** [all] Error 1

 

There are some definitions in pcreposix.h that depend on some #define’s in pcre.h, but pcre.h isn’t #include’d anywhere.  Here are some relevant lines from the configure step:

 

checking pcreposix.h usability... no

checking pcreposix.h presence... yes

configure: WARNING: pcreposix.h: present but cannot be compiled

configure: WARNING: pcreposix.h:     check for missing prerequisite headers?

configure: WARNING: pcreposix.h: see the Autoconf documentation

configure: WARNING: pcreposix.h:     section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"

configure: WARNING: pcreposix.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result

configure: WARNING: pcreposix.h: in the future, the compiler will take precedence

configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------------ ##

configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to the AC_PACKAGE_NAME lists.  ##

configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------------ ##

checking for pcreposix.h... yes

 

So the configure script finds that pcreposix.h is unusable, but uses it anyway.

 

The build works fine on a different Solaris 9 system that doesn’t have pcre installed.  Is there a fix for this problem, preferable one that doesn’t involve hacking code?  Is there a config option to pretend pcreposix.h doesn’t exist?

 

Thanks, Larry
