Compiling Dovecot on Solaris 10

[Matthias Lohmann]

Hi there...


I just had the same problem yesterday.

I believe you're using the gcc3 compiler from /usr/sfw ?


Try with a newer gcc 4.

I used/installed the gcc4 packages from opencsw.org to get it
going faster.
(Installs under /opt/csw, so no problems with existing software.)

Change your PATH to "/opt/csw/bin/gcc4:/opt/csw/bin:$PATH"
bevor configure/compile and give it a try.

Worked for me ... and 2.2.27 runs since a few hours.
