This is a quick bug report for version 1.93 and 1.94a5(?) of Majordomo.
1.93: Under both SGI Irix 5.3 and SunOS 4.1.4, I got a compiler error
at line 65 in wrapper.c. Under Irix only, I got an error at
line
99. Here are the fixes:
$ diff wrapper.c wrapper.c.new
65c65
< if (STRCHR(argv[1], '/') != (char *) NULL) {
---
> if( NULL != STRCHR(argv[1], '/') ) {
99c99
< char setgroups_used = "setgroups_was_included"; /* give strings a
hint */
---
> char *setgroups_used = "setgroups_was_included"; /* give strings
a hint */
1.94: SGI bundles perl with IRIX 5.3. Somehow, they messed up the
version information. Eg.:
$ perl -v
This is perl, version 4.0
$RCSfile: perl.c,v $$Revision: 1.1 $$Date: 1993/05/14 18:36:10 $
Patch level: 36

$ perl -e 'print $]+0'
4
Running the same series of commands on our SunOS machine returns:
$ perl -v
This is perl, version 4.0
$RCSfile: perl.c,v $$Revision: 4.0.1.8 $$Date: 1993/02/05 19:39:30 $
Patch level: 36

$ perl -e 'print $]+0'
4.0359999999999995879
Because of the version number is reported as 4 under Irix, Majordomo
"dies" with a complaint that the Perl version is too old. The critical
line is in majordomo.cf.
I did manage to get 1.94 to run under Irix. I was able to send it
'help' and 'list' commands, and I received valid responses.
Unforunately, I also received back error messages from the Mailer
Daemon. These reported that the function &shlock:warn did not exist.
I pulled in a few Perl users (I am new to Perl), and they said that
&warn should be defined in shlock.pl or one of the required modules.
We were not able to find it.
I hope this is helpful!
