Problems with gpg on HPUX 10.20
Hello,

I'm having a bit of trouble building GnuPG on my HP, and
I wondered if someone on this list can help. I ran configure
with --enable-static-rnd=egd (I have egd-0.7 abd it seems to
be working OK), --with-included-zlib --disable-nls, and
--disable-asm, since my machine is a C3000 with a PA-8500
in it and is thus PA2.0, maybe incompatible with PA1.1 stuff.
I don't know. When I did a 'make check', gpg basically failed
almost all the tests. Here's the beginning of the run:

gmake[2]: Entering directory `/home/jmm/Admin/Build/gnupg-1.0.1/checks'

Does anyone have a clue what I can do to fix this? Thanks for any help.

Could you CC any reply to me, and also please advise how to join
the list - I couldn't find any instructions on the website or in the
distribution. Thanks again.

GPG doesn't use "libtool" to build shared objects, and the method chosen
in the Makefiles only works with gcc. The HP compiler tools are
perfectly capable of building shared objects, but you have to munge the
Makefiles in order to get them to build.

I had done this for my installation of GPG, but I have lost my source
build environment, and I lack the time to go into it just now. If you
are unable to figure this out, let me know, and I'll see what I can do.
