 # Build in OpenSolaris?
 

-I've learned I'm not yet clever enough to get IkiWiki to build in OpenSolaris (as running on a [Joyent Accelerator][ja]). Anyone figured this out already?
+Moved to [[bugs/build_in_opensolaris]] --[[Joey]]

 
 

-I think problem lies mostly, if not entirely, in getting ikiwiki.cgi.c to compile in an OpenSolaris context (this is ikiwiki-2.2):

-> <code>$ ikiwiki --setup ~/etc/ikiwiki/ikiwiki-edit.setup

+# Various ways to use Subversion with ikiwiki

 
 

-More specifically, 
+I'm playing around with various ways that I can use subversion with ikiwiki.

 
 

-> <code>$ /usr/sfw/bin/gcc ikiwiki.cgi.c  
-> Undefined               first referenced  
-> symbol                     in file  
-> asprintf                   /var/tmp//cczPaG7R.o  
-> ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to a.out  
-> collect2: ld returned 1 exit status</code>
+* Is it possible to have ikiwiki point to a subversion repository which is on a different server?  The basic checkin/checkout functionality seems to work but there doesn't seem to be any way to make the post-commit hook work for a non-local server?

 
 

-[ja]: <http://www.joyent.com/accelerator/technical-specifications/>
+> This is difficult to do since ikiwiki's post-commit wrapper expects to
+> run on a machine that contains both the svn repository and the .ikiwiki
+> state directory. However, with recent versions of ikiwiki, you can get
+> away without running the post-commit wrapper on commit, and all you lose

-Thanks, Joey et al., for a really cool tool.
+* Is it possible / sensible to have ikiwiki share a subversion repository with other data (either completely unrelated files or another ikiwiki instance)?  This works in part but again the post-commit hook seems problematic.

-> Looks like the ikiwiki wrapper uses asprintf.  glibc has that, and I think some other libc implementations have that, but apparently the Solaris libc does not.  The same problem will come up on other platforms that don't use glibc.  The ikiwiki wrapper needs to either avoid asprintf or use a portable asprintf implementation from somewhere like gnulib. --[[JoshTriplett]]
