Hi all,

The fact is that hstrerror doesnt exist in HP-UX. I searched the web for "+hstrerror +hpux" and found a lot about it.

Hasn't anyone installed hobbit on HP-UX 11.11 ?

Is this the end?

The getrpcbyname was solved by -lnsl.

Regards Lars

Hi all,

now when I got this pcre installed configure works. But make stops withy errors. The getrpcbyname thing I solved with adding -lnsl to NETLIBS in Makefile.HPUX. But searching around after hstrerror I found that probably doesn't exist in HP-UX.

What to do?

"hstrerror" is an error-handling routine from the DNS resolver library.

Try a "man hstrerror" or "man gethostbyname" and see if it mentions some specific libraries that are needed. Adding "-lresolv" to the NETLIBS setting in Makefile.HP-UX might be the way forward.
