Subject: BSD/386 Ported Software List Part 01/02
Followup-To: comp.unix.bsd
Keywords: BSDI BSD/386, porting, patches
Organization: Applied Computing Devices, Inc., Terre Haute IN

Welcome to the BSDI ported software list!  Its purpose is to give
information about net software that has been ported to  or that is known to 
compile without modificaton on the BSDI BSD/386 system.  I am also attempting
to list the current patches and enhancements that are available.  This 
list will be posted on a bi-weekly basis unless the demand is greater.  

This list and some of the software packages or patches mentioned here
are archived on bsdi.com.  I have also been saving the postings to the
beta list since it was started and have made them available too.  See
the archive section for specifics on the bsdi.com archive.

The list is split into four sections.  Section 1 describes the software 
packages from the net that have been ported to the BSDI system.  These are
packages that had to be worked with to make them functional under BSDI.  The
changes necessary are variable from "easy" on up.  The second section is
for software that compiles on BSDI without code modifications.  It appears 
that several X applications fall into this area at the moment.  Section 3
will be for enhancements and patches written specifically for the BSDI
system such as new drivers or BSDI system patches.  Section 4 lists
the current archive sites for public BSDI patches, ports and enhancements.

Please contact me if you have any corrections, suggestions, or
contributions to the list.

========================================================================

SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  Bnews
VERSION:  
DESCRIPTION: 
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: thomasm@ingres.com
AVAILABILITY: 
STATE OF PORT/CODE: 
REQUIRES: 
NOTES: Pretty straight forward.  System is missing ftime, so a
compatibility function had to be written.
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME: elm
VERSION:
DESCRIPTION: Full screen mailing interface.
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: thomasm@ingres.com
AVAILABILITY: 
STATE OF PORT/CODE: 
REQUIRES: 
NOTES:  BSD toupper/tolower are broken.  Elm supplies versions which
can be used.  Or you can fix the one's in libc like I did.
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  pcomm                                 
VERSION: 
DESCRIPTION: Communications package.
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: thomasm@ingres.com
AVAILABILITY: 
STATE OF PORT/CODE: 
REQUIRES: 
NOTES: Some ioctl's had to be changed.  Nothing big, if I recall. 
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME: xviewgl 
VERSION: 
DESCRIPTION: 
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: thomasm@ingres.com
AVAILABILITY: 
STATE OF PORT/CODE: 
REQUIRES: 
NOTES: 	Found a bug in libc.a in fgetpos.  Once this was fixed
everything worked fine.
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  SB Prolog
VERSION:  3.1
DESCRIPTION: Freeware Prolog interpreter with docs. 
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: Doug Dyer/ddyer@afit.af.mil
AVAILABILITY: Anonymous ftp via cs.arizona.edu for this version.  
STATE OF PORT/CODE: Everything works as far as I can tell.  
REQUIRES: I had to change a few things.  I can send mail to anyone
interested.  
NOTES:  None
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  CLIPS (C Language Integrated Production System)
VERSION:  5.0
DESCRIPTION: A rule-based, forward-chaining expert system shell
patterned after OPS 5, ART.  CLIPS also includes the CLIPS
Object-Oriented Language (COOL).  CLIPS was developed by NASA/Johnson
and is widely used.  
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: Doug Dyer/ddyer@afit.af.mil
AVAILABILITY:  Oddly, it may be available via anonymous ftp (see note
below).  Otherwise, it is free to NASA, USAF, and their contractors.
Others can purchase CLIPS in source form from COSMIC, NASA's
commercial software developer.
STATE OF PORT/CODE: Everything works as far as I can tell.  
REQUIRES: No brains, anyway.  Changing a line or two in the makefile.
NOTES:  Recently, Brian Donnell at NASA posted the following news item:

"If you are an employee of or contractor to NASA or USAF, you may obtain
CLIPS ...<stuff deleted>...  You may redistribute to NASA and USAF
employees and <contractors>.

Everyone else must purchase CLIPS from COSMIC.  However, once you have
purchased CLIPS, you may do anything you want with it, including redistribute
it by posting it for anonymous FTP.  Thus, a copy of CLIPS which can trace
its ultimate origins to a copy purchased from COSMIC may be freely distributed.
However, we at NASA are not allowed to do this."

Therefore, it seems that anyone who has purchased CLIPS can
effectively place it in the public domain.  
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  bash
VERSION:  1.12
DESCRIPTION: FSF's `Bourne Again SHell', including everything but
the kitchen sink.
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: grog%lemis@Germany.EU.Net
AVAILABILITY: When I have the people at unido accept incoming uucp 
              transfers, I'll put it there. Diffs also available for
	      the asking.
STATE OF PORT/CODE: I've been using it for 6 weeks, and have found no
bugs.
REQUIRES: (nothing special)
NOTES:  (none)
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  emacs

              transfers, I'll put it there. Diffs also available for
	      the asking.
STATE OF PORT/CODE: I've been using it for 6 weeks, and have found no
bugs.
REQUIRES: (nothing special)
NOTES:  (none)
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  iozone
VERSION:  1.08
DESCRIPTION: Displays neatly table of disk performance
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: pi@rus.uni-stuttgart.de
AVAILABILITY: No. I'm not sure whether binaries or sources
		are more popular ? Or both ?
STATE OF PORT/CODE: ready
REQUIRES: -
NOTES:  Added an #define bsd4_2 to include sys/time.h
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  Screen
VERSION:  3.2
DESCRIPTION: Provides multiple sessions on one connection, works
		over almost any line. Replacement for missing virtual
		terminals.
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: pi@rus.uni-stuttgart.de, bsdi stuff was already defined
AVAILABILITY: ftp.uni-stuttgart.de:/soft/kommunikation/news/tmp/screen*
STATE OF PORT/CODE: works ok, has problems with characters missing etc.
		but is useable.
REQUIRES: 
NOTES:  It did not compile out of the box, some problems with signals.
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  elvis
VERSION:  1.5
DESCRIPTION: good replacement for vi
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: pi@rus.uni-stuttgart.de
AVAILABILITY: no, same as above
STATE OF PORT/CODE: I use it since two weeks, better then the older
		elvis, had to modify prsvunix.c (extern getpwuid
		is ansified and needs to be correct)
REQUIRES: -
NOTES:  wonderful, the visual mark facility !
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  less
VERSION:  170 (hmm, isnt it supposed to be 177 ?)
DESCRIPTION: replacement for more
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: pi@rus.uni-stuttgart.de
AVAILABILITY: no.
STATE OF PORT/CODE: it works, better then the supplied more 8)
REQUIRES: -
NOTES:  it requires to include <regexp.h> and define REGCOMP in search.c
	to work properly, but the linstall does not recognize this.
	I don't think the REGCOMP support was ever tested.
        [ Janet Jackson <janet@cs.uwa.edu.au> and thomasm@ingres.com 
          (Tom Markson) both also report less compiled and working.  
          Janet's notes follow below. ]
REQUIRES: regex.c as provided by James da Silva <jds%cs.UMD.EDU>, if
     you want to use regexps.  I compiled regex.c into a local library
     file in /usr/local/lib, which I included with -L in less's Makefile.
     NO CHANGES TO THE CODE OF less ITSELF.
NOTES:  when run on console using the standard terminal type (pc3, I think)
     less complains that the terminal can't scroll backwards.  This complaint
     could probably be turned off by compiling with a lower level of help
     messages.
-----
 SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  ISODE
 VERSION:  7.0, and 8.0
 DESCRIPTION: The ISO Developers Environment which provides upper
         layer support for OSI applications and includes an X.500
         implementation.  ISODE can use the ISO and CCITT socket
         families if the appropreate hardware and drivers are
         installed in your system (this is untested).
 YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: huntting@glarp.com
 AVAILABILITY: The ISODE version 7.0 is P/D, bug quite huge.
         8.0 is available from misc.glarp.com [128.138.240.101]
 STATE OF PORT/CODE: The diff's were minimal.  I would have to pull
         the source off of backup tapes and run diff if anyone needs
         them.  The compiled installation (libraries, include files,
         the 'quipu' X.500 server, SNMP agent, etc) can be made
         available easily.
         8.0 fails some of the tests for psap echo and psap isode/echo
         but dish and quipu appear to work at first glance.
 REQUIRES: The encumbered version of lex is needed to compile the package.
         Flex chokes.
 NOTES [8.0]: When compiling, be sure to "unlimit" all resource limits
	related to virtual memory size.  It takes alot of space to
	compile some of the pieces.

	Among these patches, are patches to the lex code which
	allow it to be compiled with "flex" (gnu version of lex)
	which is now the standard lex shiped with BSD.

	Since gcc pays meticulous attention to function prototypes
	it was nessesary to blast some of the redundant and errant
	external function delcaration statments.

	setenv() takes 3 arguments under BSD not 2.  A #define
	solved the problem.  Similarly, dirent(3) was disabled
	since it comes built in to BSD386.

	The file system queary calls in snmp/unixFs.c were adapted
	to the new 4.4BSD getfsstat() and fsstat() interfaces.

A few incompatible tweeks were made.  "mkdirhier" takes the place
of "mkdir" in the top leval Makefile for making make-dirs.
-----
 SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  PP
 VERSION:  6.0
 DESCRIPTION: A Message Transfer Agent capable of handling X.400,
         SMTP, and other protocols.
 YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: huntting@glarp.com
 AVAILABILITY: PP-6.0 is P/D
 STATE OF PORT/CODE: Like ISODE, there were minimal changes.
 REQUIRES: The encumbered version of lex may be needed to compile
         this package.  ISODE-6.0 is also required.
 NOTES:  
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  
        	MetaFont et al.
	        TeX, LaTeX et al.
        	bash 1.12
	        dvips 5.47 (I think)
	        emacs 18.58 (with X11 support)
	        flex (dont know which version, latest from prep)
	        ghostscript 2.4 + ghostview
	        gtar 1.10
	        kermit 5A(179) BETA (newer than the one in contrib)
	        sc (spreadsheet)
	        screen ("virtual console" via ptys)
	        shar
	        xcal (x calendar)
VERSION:  See above.
DESCRIPTION: 
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: Bernhard.Schneck@physik.tu-muenchen.de
AVAILABILITY: 
STATE OF PORT/CODE: 
REQUIRES: 
NOTES: If you need more information about any of these packages drop
me a mail.
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  minicom
VERSION:  1.2pl1
DESCRIPTION: Communications package.
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: smm@acd4.acd.com ( Steve McCoole )
AVAILABILITY: Can do some limited mailing of diffs.
STATE OF PORT/CODE: Working well, one real bug.
REQUIRES: 
NOTES:  There is a status indicator on the bottom of the screen.  If
the program thinks that the modem is on-line, scrolling does not work
properly.  I'm looking for the problem.  The work-around right now is
to use the hang up command as soon as you enter the program and it
works fine after that.  I had to comment out a SIG_IGN call for 
SIGTINT and initialize some variables before they were used in
wkeys.c.
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  nethack
VERSION:  3.0 pl 10
DESCRIPTION: Character based adventure game.
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: smm@acd4.acd.com ( Steve McCoole )
AVAILABILITY: Can do some limited mailing of diffs.
STATE OF PORT/CODE: 
REQUIRES: 
NOTES:  Had to put an int definition for sprintf in the nethack
system.h file under BSD.  Had to add the following define to
unixtty.c:
#ifdef bsdi
#define GTTY(x)         (ioctl(0, TIOCGETP, (char *)x))
#define STTY(x)         (ioctl(0, TIOCSETP, (char *)x))
#endif
The rest of the config was basically generic BSD.
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  
	ImakeTeX (TeX 3.14 & LaTeX) and MetaFont from labrea
	xfig (R5)
	ghostscript 2.4 (X & epson)
	ghostview 1.1
	xdvi
	dvi2ps 2.31
	transfig ( from R5)
	zsh 2.2
	tcsh 6.01
	gnutar 1.09
	bison 1.14
	flex 2.3
	mg 2a
	gnu-fgrep 1.0
VERSION:  See above.
DESCRIPTION: Various ported software.
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: pfp@xs0001.at (Peter Pflaeging)
AVAILABILITY: I've got no Internet access (only UUCP) so it would be
great to see an archive server (preferable in Europe) where I can mail
my binary set.
STATE OF PORT/CODE: 
	I've got BSD/386 running since one week. This ported software
	are the tools I'm using normally. Though - I've compiled it and
	they work - but I don't know if they are really stable. I
	haven't seen a bug since the porting.
REQUIRES: 
NOTES: 
Tips for people who want to port:

Normally the software to port ask for an operating system:
	First hint is BSD4.3 or BSD4.4. One of the differences is:
	386/BSD is POSIX compliant. Though look for the switch -D_POSIX_SOURCE
One of the most amusing facts is that prototypes for library functions
are in 386/BSD headers. Sometimes you must delete the prototypes from
the source of the programs (a good way to look for software quality).
X-software is very easy to port. Normally xmkmf -a produces a good
Makefile.

Problems:

The only hard problem I've is: web2c from labrea doesn't work, because
either lex or yacc are producing fals C-source. So I've made the first
step (generating C-source) on an ULTRIX 4.2 machine. Then I compiled
the suite under BSD/386. I will test this with flex and bison again.
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME: ups
DESCRIPTION: X11 based source level C debugger.
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: mtr@ukc.ac.uk (Mark Russell)
AVAILABILITY: Soon - it is being tested by a few people now.  I will
	      make it available by anonymous FTP in the next week or so.
STATE OF PORT/CODE: Alpha test - it has not yet been used other than by me.
REQUIRES: Access to X server (either on the PC itself or elsewhere).
NOTES:
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  tcsh
VERSION: 6.02
DESCRIPTION: a popular csh-derived shell with line editing and other
bells&whistles. 
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: John Kohl <jtkohl@kolvir.elcr.ca.us>
AVAILABILITY: pick it up from tesla.ee.cornell.edu:/pub/tcsh/tcsh-6.02.tar.Z
STATE OF PORT/CODE: complete.
REQUIRES: disk space :-)
NOTES: [ pfp@xs0001.at (Peter Pflaeging) also reports a working port
of tcsh, but his version is 6.01 ]

If you have X11 installed, you can just run this to configure it before
building:
	imake -DUseInstalled -DConfigH="bsd4.4" -I/usr/X11/lib/X11/config

Otherwise, edit as directed in README and select bsd4.4 as the system
type.

tcsh-6.02 compiles fine out-of-the-box, but to have a useful
$HOSTTYPE you need to add the attached patch.

SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  sc
VERSION:  6.21
DESCRIPTION: Spreadsheet calculator--your basic spreadsheet.
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: John T Kohl <jtkohl@kolvir.elcr.ca.us>
AVAILABILITY: Pick it up from any comp.sources.unix archive, Volume 23
(e.g. ftp.uu.net:/usenet/comp.sources.unix/volume23/sc6.8/*)
STATE OF PORT/CODE: Runs fine.  Just compile & install!
NOTES:  You'll need to configure the Makefile; should be straightforward
(look at the stuff marked 'reno' for most of it) 
[ Bernhard.Schneck@physik.tu-muenchen.de also has this package
working, version is not known.  ]
[ Janet Jackson <janet@cs.uwa.edu.au> has this package working at
version 6.21, her notes are below. ]
SC (spreadsheet) has a bunch of patches that you probably want to
pick up with the sources.  The details:
Sc appears in comp.sources.misc as:
      v20i035-v20i041 sc/part01-7     original   (Sc6.16)
      v22i095   sc/patch01a           Patch01a/2
      v22i096   sc/patch01b           Patch01b/2 (6.16->6.17)
      v22i104   sc/patch02            Patch02    (6.17->6.18)
      v23i035   sc/patch03            Patch03    (6.18->6.19)
      v24i020	sc/patch04a	      Patch04a/2
      v24i021	sc/patch04b	      Patch04b/2 (6.19->6.21)
STATE OF PORT/CODE [Janet]:
My machine has no math coprocessor.  To cope with a floating-point
emulation bug, I have made minor changes.  Everywhere (I hope!) that          
0.0 is used as a double, I have replaced it with (double)0,                   
because 0.0 gets treated as NaN.  This meant, for example,                    
that a cell entered as "0.25" would become NaN!                               
The only other bug I've noticed is that the row numbers are sometimes         
messed up when you scroll the screen.                                         
NOTES [Janet]:
I had to configure the Makefile.                                              
I can supply my Makefile and patches for the C files if people want them.     
I have also written a thing called sc-extract (and sent it to the             
comp.sources.unix moderator, who has not yet processed it) for doing links    
between spreadsheets using sc's external function mechanism.

SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  XLISP-PLUS 
VERSION:  2.1d
DESCRIPTION: Common Lisp-like (getting closer!) interpreter.
Originally developed by David Michael Betz for the PC, this version was
significantly revised by Tom Almy and others.
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: ddyer@afit.af.mil
AVAILABILITY: Original 2.1d sources are ftpable from
 			glia.biostr.washington.edu	128.95.10.115
			bikini.cis.ufl.edu		128.227.224.1
STATE OF PORT/CODE: I've not tested completely, nor eliminated all
compiler warnings, but things I have tried work fine and the
documentation is good.
REQUIRES: Minor changes
NOTES:  I will respond to email if anyone has problems.
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  Gnu sed 
VERSION:  1.08
DESCRIPTION: 
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: Larry Jones <scjones@thor.sdrc.com>
AVAILABILITY:  [ This is one of the things that I'm looking to send to
one of the archive sites if they don't already have it. ]
STATE OF PORT/CODE: 
REQUIRES: 
NOTES: 
A number of people have complained about sed being defective.  I finally
got some time to look into it and fix it.  In a nutshell, the way sed
was handling subprograms ('{' and '}') was completely wrong.  I've sent
the fixes to GNU, but I thought people here would appreciate having the
fixed version, so I'm sending this shar.
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  epoch
VERSION:  ??
DESCRIPTION: Enhanced X only version of emacs. 
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL:  RWALDRON@cs.tcd.ie
AVAILABILITY: nic.funet.fi [ And most other gnu archives. ]
STATE OF PORT/CODE: 
                a poor executable, which does not do:
                a) save / dump to disk, so loadup.el has to run every time..
                b) fork processes (e.g. TeX on region) -> it dumps core
REQUIRES: 
NOTES: Problems that I have not had time to track down yet.
-----
SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  gcc
VERSION:  2.1
DESCRIPTION: GNU C and C++ compilers
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: antsu@lajax.pp.fi (Antti-Pekka Virtanen)
AVAILABILITY: nic.funet.fi
              ~pub/unix/386ix/bsd386/gnu
STATE OF PORT/CODE: there are both ready to run binaries and sources. 
REQUIRES: 
NOTES: 
The bsd386 binary package contains also libg++-2.0 library binaries.
I am sorry but I lost my libg++-2.0 sources due to an archive error, but
at least the library seems to work okay. The compressed libg++.a file
is the original one directly from the sources. The current library I use
has a few bug-fixes which were needed to get InterViews 3.0.1 run.
(I will provide my InterViews 3.0.1 binaries/sources if there is interest.)

I hope these will make you happy! But ofcource I cannot promise anything
to work and I don't provide any support. If you have fixes , please send
them also to me.

SOFTWARE PACKAGE NAME:  InterViews
VERSION:  3.0.1
DESCRIPTION: X based document package, WYSIWYG editor and drawing
             package.
YOUR NAME/E-MAIL: antsu@lajax.pp.fi (Antti-Pekka Virtanen)
AVAILABILITY: nic.funet.fi
[128.214.6.100] in directory ~pub/unix/386ix/bsd386/X11/InterViews.
STATE OF PORT/CODE: 
I hope this is enough to make InterViews compile on your machine.
I have only used doc document-editor so I cannot say if the other
clients work. At least doc seems to work allright.
REQUIRES: 
To compile this you will need Gcc 2.1 and libg++-2.0 or later
which will have some fixes in the iostream library. You can 
use the Gcc 2.1 and libg++-2.0 binaries available in nic.funet.fi
under ~pub/unix/386ix/bsd386/gnu.
NOTES: 
There has been some questions of what this InterViews is...

You will find attached some information which I cut out from
one document (you can find the full papers in interviews.stanford.edu)

I myself use only the sample client "doc" which is a simple
WYSIWYG document editing tool. It stores it's files as LaTeX-like
format and outputs postscript for printing. You can also include
pictures and draw them with the sample application idraw.
It is very nice for writing little documents!

Also, there is ibuild, an interactive interface builder ( which
I haven't even tried ) which let's you design your user interfaces.

I have installed the following X packages under bsdi 386.  These are NOT
ports - using the automated X makefile generator the required changes
have been typically 1 to 5 lines of code or Imakefile.
	xgobi     - from statlib
	xlispstat - from statlib
	xv-2.21   - from uunet (a big change from the bsdi contrib version)
	3dplot    - from uunet
	pbmplus   - from uunet
