51.1Stvare listed.

71.10SjmcAll hosts must have a POSIX compatible sh. /bin/sh is assumed unless 
81.10Sjmcotherwise set. This can be overridden by setting HOST_SH in the environment.
91.10Sjmc
101.10SjmcIn addition all hosts must provide the following local tools:

161.8SlukemHP-UX:
171.7Slukem
181.7Slukem* zlib must be available.
191.7Slukem  This will be fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat.

221.1Stv
231.1StvLINUX:
241.1Stv
251.1Stv* Tested on RedHat Linux 7.1 (i386).
261.6Sbriggs  Tested on RedHat Linux 7.3 (i686) on 16 Sep 2002.  Requires "LANG=C"
271.6Sbriggs  in the environment.
281.1Stv
291.10Sjmc* Tested on Redhat Linux 8.0 (i686) in Fall 2003. Requires no special settings.
301.10Sjmc
311.1Stv* The gcc (and libstdc++, if needed) package must be installed, along
321.1Stv  with the typical system development packages (glibc-devel, etc.).
331.1Stv
341.1Stv* The ncurses-devel package must be installed (for nbinfo).
351.1Stv
361.1Stv* The zlib and zlib-devel packages must be installed.  This will be
371.1Stv  fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat.
381.9Sdbj
391.9Sdbj=====
401.9Sdbj
411.9SdbjMACOS
421.9Sdbj  Probably requires a case sensitive filesystem such as UFS
431.9Sdbj
441.9Sdbj* Tested on 10.2.8 with Dec 2002 Developer Tools
451.9Sdbj    - may require a fix to /usr/bin/join, netbsd's join should work fine
461.9Sdbj* Tested on 10.3 with xcode 1.0
471.9Sdbj    - compiles fine out of the box
481.1Stv
491.1Stv=====
501.1Stv
511.1StvNETBSD (earlier releases):
521.1Stv
531.1Stv* Tested on NetBSD 1.5.2 (machine-independently).
541.1Stv
551.1Stv* Should need no special setup.
561.1Stv
571.1Stv=====
581.1Stv
591.1StvSOLARIS:
601.1Stv
611.4Sthorpej* Tested on Solaris/x86 8 (5.8) with gcc 2.95.2 and Solaris/sparc 8 (5.8)
621.4Sthorpej  with gcc 3.2 (not yet tested with SUNWspro).
631.1Stv
641.1Stv* $HOST_CC needs to be set properly (for gcc, it should be set to "gcc",
651.1Stv  otherwise the improper /usr/ucb/cc may be invoked by accident).
661.1Stv
671.4Sthorpej* The SUNWzlib package (or a built version of zlib visible to $HOST_CC,
681.4Sthorpej  such as SMCzlib from sunfreeware.com) must be installed.  This will be
691.4Sthorpej  fixed in the future to include zlib in libnbcompat.
701.1Stv
711.1Stv* Needs the following paths, in this order, in $PATH:
721.1Stv
731.5Sthorpej      /usr/xpg4/bin
741.4Sthorpej      /usr/ccs/bin
751.4Sthorpej      <path to host C and C++ compilers>
761.4Sthorpej      /usr/bin
771.4Sthorpej
781.4Sthorpej  /usr/ucb may optionally be placed before /usr/bin, per your preference,
791.4Sthorpej  but /usr/ucb *MUST NOT* be before /usr/ccs/bin or before the path to
801.4Sthorpej  the host C and C++ compilers.
