compiling xpdf

[Marc Grober]

I am getting errors compiling xpdf on 7.1.2 and could use some help.

# make
cd goo; make
CC -g -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.. -I. -c GHash.cc
"/usr/include/stdio.h", line 392: catastrophic error: could not open
source file "cstdio"
#include <cstdio> /* for namespace std */
^

*** Error code 1 (bu21)
UX:make: ERROR: fatal error.
*** Error code 1 (bu21)
UX:make: ERROR: fatal error.

cstdio is a gcc file at /usr/local/include/g++/cstdio which should not
be referenced unless the configure finds g++ and it shouldn't be (and
the configuration indicates it has not.....

If I set CC to gcc and change PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include
/usr/local where the gcc stuff lives, I get other errors

this is the only questionable response from autoconf:

problem

but then I get this

Apparently I have my environments mixed..... anyone have any
suggestions?

When Unixware was branded Caldera OpenUnix I did a new install and was then told to
install the old Unixware UDK which as a package, appeared to install correctly.....
My listing of /usr/include/CC is below. How does that compare to yours?

I don't know why someone told you to do that ... it effectively back-rev's
the UDK C++ compiler and puts its header files out of synch with the UDK
C compiler's header files, thus the missing <cstdio>.

Re-install the OUDK from the Open UNIX 8 media kit, or upgrade to the
newer UDK 7.1.3 from UnixWare 7.1.3.
