nmh is known to compile on the following platforms (save the
Known Compilation problems:
--------------------------------------
-FreeBSD:
-OpenBSD:
-NetBSD:
-
-Some BSD4.4 machines have problems when running nmh's configure script.
-They will be unable to find the location of vi and sendmail. This is
-due to POSIX features (breakage?) in the shell sh. The solution is to
-run the configure script under the shell `bash':
-
- % bash configure
-
---------------------------------------
-Mac OS X/Rhapsody 5:
-
-Version 5.3 at least has the same sh/bash bug as the *BSD systems
-above. This appears to be fixed in 5.5.
+Cygwin:
-Will not compile correctly unless you configure with the --enable-debug
-option. It appears to find conflicts in the headers only when debugging
-is disabled. With debugging enabled, it compiles and runs happily.
+Be sure to install these Cygwin packages:
+ gdbm
+ libgdbm4
+ libgdbm-devel
+ libncurses10
+ libncurses-devel
---------------------------------------
-Cygwin:
+If configuring with --with-cyrus-sasl, install these Cygwin packages:
+ libsasl2
+ libsasl2-devel
-Be sure to install Cygwin packages libncurses-devel and libncurses10,
-in the Libs category.
+If configuring with --with-tls, install these Cygwin packages:
+ gnutls-devel
+ libgnutls26
-You may notice a few (three) compile warnings: they can be ignored.
+Note that the -link switch to refile cannot be used on FAT32 and
+similar filesystems.
--------------------------------------
HPUX:
with UTF-8 support anyway.
Other than the warnings, it builds ok.

--------------------------------------
SunOS 4.1.1/4.1.3/4.1.4:
You can't use the C compiler that comes with SunOS 4 since
it isn't ANSI C. But nmh builds just fine with gcc. With
--enable-debug you will see a lot of warnings.
