Just one question:
I couldn't find anything in my Solaris 2.7 manual about gethostname()
being deprecated.
Anyway, the current MySQL 3.22.30 compiled cleanly on our Solaris
2.5.1, 2.6 and 2.7 machines.
configure should define the -DSOLARIS flag in configure which should
have fixed this problem. Can you check why the following configure
test didn't work on your machine:
*solaris2.5.1*)
echo "Enabling getpass() workaround for Solaris 2.5.1"
CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -DHAVE_BROKEN_GETPASS -DSOLARIS -DHAVE_RWLOCK_T";
CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS -DHAVE_RWLOCK_T"
Regards,
Monty
