zsh HP-UX build problems

zsh HP-UX build problems

[eavis]

I downloaded zsh-4.0.6.tar.bz2 and did the normal build steps.  I have
shown some, but not all, of the output of each command in this message.

% ./configure --prefix=$HOME

% make
[all seemed to build correctly.  It didn't work with make -j, but that's
another story]

% make test
[several tests passed, then:]

So the tests depending on dynamic loading fail, and also Y01completion
hangs.  To work around the problem, I unpacked a fresh tarball and did:

Here a lot of the tests want to find a 'zpty' command which has not been
built.  So I think there are two main bugs to report: the failure of the
dynamic loading tests (or arguably the failure of --configure to autodetect
that dynamic loading won't work), and the failure of the tests wanting
'zpty'.

% uname -a
HP-UX lonhp02 B.11.11 U 9000/800 589734997 unlimited-user license

What can I do to track down these bugs further?  Please cc replies to me
since I do not read this list.

You need zpty to run completion tests. It is just that nobody considered it
important enough to modify test handler to return something more meaningful
in this case.

Zpty is not built automatically for static version, you should modify
config.modules in build directory to include it in static build, do not
forget to run make prep after that, see comments in this files. But I am
afraid there were reports that zpty fails on HP-UX as well.

The very first question - is HPUXDYNAMIC defined in config.h?
