Hi!

----

A new set of tarballs containing an OS/Net version of ksh93 [1] (based
on ksh93s+_beta_20070418 [2]) is now available from
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/2007-07-14/

These tarballs are intended to be installed over an existing OpenSolaris
i386 or SPARC installation (>= Nevada B61) and provide
ksh93s+_beta_20070418 [2] for testing and evaluation purposed ONLY.

Please report any problems/errors/bugs/comments to the ksh93-integration
project bugzilla [5] or the ksh93-integration mailinglist [4].


** Install instructions:

 1. Download the tarball:
      + i386/AMD64:
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20070714_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2
      + SPARC:	
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20070714_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2
 2. Verify the MD5 checksum:
      + i386/AMD64: MD5
        (ksh93_integration_20070714_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2)=
        cab10e4b10eebcf753da462a79bb69c9
      + SPARC: MD5(ksh93_integration_20070714_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2)
        = 003e62591c137cdd46e022baa6bc8f9c
 3. Login as user "root":
 4. Change directory to / and unpack the tarball with /usr/bin/tar
    using the "xvof" option ("o" is very important to set the file
    ownership to "root")

Example for i386/AMD64:

  $ cd /tmp
  $ wget
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20070714_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2
  $ /usr/sfw/bin/openssl md5
ksh93_integration_20070714_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2
  MD5(ksh93_integration_20070714_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2)=
cab10e4b10eebcf753da462a79bb69c9
  # cd /
  # sync ; sync
  # bzcat </tmp/ksh93_integration_20070714_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2 | tar
-xvof -
  # sync ; sync

Example for SPARC:

  $ cd /tmp
  $ wget
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20070714_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2
  $ /usr/sfw/bin/openssl md5
ksh93_integration_20070714_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2
  MD5(ksh93_integration_20070714_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2)=
003e62591c137cdd46e022baa6bc8f9c
  # cd /
  # sync ; sync
  # bzcat </tmp/ksh93_integration_20070714_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2 | tar
-xvof -
  # sync ; sync

Notes:

  * This tarball matches ksh93s+ (=ast-ksh.2007-04-18) with many many
    changes since the last version. Please test the binaries
    extensively.
  * The binaries now are build from a B61-based tree and require SXCR
    B61 or higher
  * Sources/diffs/webrevs:
      + The diffs between Solaris Nevada B61 and the current
        ksh93-integration tree can be obtained via
        svn diff -r 676:740 svn://svn.genunix.org/on/branches/ksh93/
        gisburn/prototype005/usr
        or as unified diff from
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/svn_genunix_org_on_branches_ksh93_gisburn_prototype005_rev_676_740.diff.txt
(12MB, MD5 checksum is b17d17508b056ccb5698847258ad9d74).
      + Alternatively webrev pages (for final code review) can be found
at
http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/ksh93-integration-discuss/2007-July/005545.html
  * 64bit binaries and libraries are now included (and used by
    default if the hardware is 64bit capable)
  * AST l10n utilities are stored in /usr/ast/bin/.
  * Starting with ksh93s+ multibyte characters can be used for
    variable/function/etc.-names. Please test this functionality
    extensively.
  * <esc><ctrl-l> was added to emacs/gmacs mode to clear the screen
    (per community requests and to be in sync with bash)
  * If you wish to use ksh93 as login shell you have to create the
    file /etc/shells (see shells(4) manual page) to include it in the
    list of "allowed" system login shells:
    Example /etc/shells file (created using $ cat usr/src/lib/libc/
    port/gen/getusershell.c | egrep '.*".*/(bin|sbin)/.*".*' | sed 's
    /[",]//g' | sort -u #):

    /bin/bash
    /bin/csh
    /bin/jsh
    /bin/ksh
    /bin/ksh93
    /bin/pfcsh
    /bin/pfksh
    /bin/pfsh
    /bin/sh
    /bin/tcsh
    /bin/zsh
    /sbin/jsh
    /sbin/pfsh
    /sbin/sh
    /usr/bin/bash
    /usr/bin/csh
    /usr/bin/jsh
    /usr/bin/ksh
    /usr/bin/ksh93
    /usr/bin/pfcsh
    /usr/bin/pfksh
    /usr/bin/pfsh
    /usr/bin/sh
    /usr/bin/tcsh
    /usr/bin/zsh
    /usr/sfw/bin/zsh
    /usr/xpg4/bin/sh

  * libcmd.so is replaced with a version which includes both the
    ksh93 builtin commands and the private Solaris API of previous
    libcmd versions.
  * The tarball was simply created from an OS/Net B61 proto/ subdir
    via collecting the files listed by $ find $ROOT '!' -type d | sed
    's/.*\/root_sparc\///' | egrep "/(lib|llib-l)(cmd|ast|shell|dll|
    pp)|/(ksh|rksh|pfksh)|include/ast|usr/ast/" | egrep -v cmdutils |
    sort #.
  * The tarballs do not provide a manual page for ksh93. Please use
    the manual page for ksh93r in the meantime.
  * "multiline" input mode was temporary disabled in the default
    configuration due small issues.
  * The ksh93 binaries can be build from source like this:
    (Instructions are for Solaris i386/AMD64; SPARC requires minor
    adjustments)
     1. Pull sources and extract closed bin stuff (files can be
        obtained from opensolaris.org):
        $ mkdir test_x86 ; cd test_x86
        $ svn checkout -r 740
svn://svn.genunix.org/on/branches/ksh93/gisburn/prototype005/usr
        $ bzcat <../download/on-closed-bins-nd-b61.i386.tar.bz2 | tar
-xf -
        $ cd ..
     2. Create opensolaris.sh.
        This is the usual opensolaris.sh with the paths adjusted to
        match your location of the sources.
        Example for the changes applies to opensolaris.sh (for my
        workspace):

     3. Run "bldenv":
        $ env - SHELL=$SHELL TERM=$TERM HOME=$HOME LOGNAME=$LOGNAME

        =less MANPATH=$MANPATH /opt/onbld/bin/bldenv opensolaris.sh #

        $ cd test_x86/usr/src
        $ export ON_BUILD_AST_L10N_CATALOGS=1 CW_NO_SHADOW=1
        $ time nice make setup 2>&1 | tee -a buildlog_setup.log
        $ time nice dmake install >buildlog.log 2>&1
