[Alpine-info] alpine "hanging" on Solaris 7

[Jayakara Kini]

Hi Dario,

Solaris 7!!  Haven't heard about it for quite some time now...

I use alpine on Solaris 11 compiled with Sun Studio 12.
I don't see any issues you mentioned above.

- What does the truss of alpine show when its hanging?
- You could post the debug files.  Somebody from the alpine team might
be able to help.
- What compiler did you use?
     Alpine has one bug, when compiled with Sun Studio, which causes
it to crash.
     Compiling with gcc does not.  If you compiled with 'cc', try
'gcc'.  err... and vice-versa :)
- What libraries is your alpine linking to?
     Are they linking to the right ones?  I have same libraries on
/usr/sfw/lib and /opt/csw/lib
     on Solaris 11.    I  have to link to /usr/sfw/lib for alpine to work right.
