Hello,

I am trying to build opendoors and clans for linux. UNfortunately there
are no easy instructions like building synchronet.

Any tips for setting these up to build?

Opendoors seems to build ok, except for ex_ski, I get "cannot find -lxpdev"

Also, where can I find some reading like ld for dummies ?

Thanks!

Hello,

I am trying to build opendoors and clans for linux. UNfortunately there

THe 1st error I was gettings is:

In file included from clans.c:31:
unix_wrappers.h:49: error: æPATH_MAXÆ undeclared here (not in a function) clans.c:52:56: error: OpenDoor.h: No such file or directory
clans.c: In function æMainGameÆ:
clans.c:163: warning: implicit declaration of function æstrcasecmpÆ
make: *** [clans.o] Error 1

Checking out PATH_MAX in Google, I changed unix_wrappers.h line 5 to:

#include <linux/limits.h>

And that seemed to work.

2nd error is:

myibbs.c: In function æDirExistsÆ:
myibbs.c:71: error: æS_IFDIRÆ undeclared (first use in this function) myibbs.c:71: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once myibbs.c:71: error: for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [myibbs.o] Error 1

This one was a little trickier. Taking out std=c99 from gets me past
this error, but I am not sure what problems this now introduces.

3rd error is:

wb_fapnd.c:31: error: conflicting types for æfile_appendÆ
snipfile.h:20: note: previous declaration of æfile_appendÆ was here wb_fapnd.c:83: error: conflicting types for æfile_copyÆ
snipfile.h:19: note: previous declaration of æfile_copyÆ was here
make: *** [wb_fapnd.o] Error 1

Commented out declarations in snipfile.h

Compiled! :o What a hatchet job. :) Of course it segfaults all over
because it can't find files but thats another post.

Anyhow, if someone has the correct ways to fix the above, please let me
know.

Hello,

I am trying to build opendoors and clans for linux. UNfortunately there
are no easy instructions like building synchronet.

Where'd you get the clans source from?

Any tips for setting these up to build?

Opendoors seems to build ok, except for ex_ski, I get "cannot find -lxpdev"

Do you have libxpdev.so or libxpdev.a on your system?

Well the linker can't find it. You could try copying (or symlinking) libxpdev.a to your /usr/lib directory.

That fixes it. I suppose the -lxpdev is short for -libxpdev(so or a)?

THanks@!

I ended up making a ../clans/src directory and moving the source there
to compile. I then linked the executables to the ../clans and copied
the files from data and release into ../clans. I was able to run in
local mode after that. Yay!

Also, in the release directory, the file clans.cfj should be clans.cfg I
guess unless there is a super secret reason for this other than typo. :)

Next task is to set it up for regular bbs play and then on to IBBS
league. :o

I will let everyone know how it goes whether you care or not. :P

Once OpenDoors is built (don't worry about ex_ski) run GNU make in the clans-src directory.

Eventually I did realize the ex_ski didn't matter and just went on to
clans. :) Thanks!
