Installing ksh on my arch machine. [ SOLVED ]

srikanthradix · 2012-01-20 19:28:05

Which INIT package should I download from this site?
http://www2.research.att.com/~gsf/cgi-b … &name=INIT

Mine is a 64-bit machine. Does it mean, I have to download " 2011-02-08 BASE * linux.i386-64"? from the site?

If I download any packages, they are tgz files.
I gunzip'ped them and untarred them. What should I do next?

More information about my problem is here..

I appreciate your help.

Use https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=13772 or https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=40749 .

Edit: Yes, you should try installing Oracle from the AUR.

Edit 2: If things don't work as expected, research them first. That's why you should know how AUR works so you're not lost if e.g. you can't build a package the usual way. Read https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ks/ksh/PKGBUILD

I tried installing from the aur as well.

I forgot to post them.

aurbuild -s oracle
as well as
aurbuild -s ksh. Both didn't work.

But, I forgot to edit the PKGBUILD, to make it 2011.
source=("INIT.2011-02-08.tgz" "ast-ksh.2011-02-08.tgz")

Thank you so much for help. I really appreciate it.

But what didn't work? What errors?
Did you do as the ksh PKGBUILD told you to do?

And?
Can you show us the directory? Just to be sure there is INIT.2011-02-08.tgz in there.

srikanthradix · 2012-01-20 22:46:41

I edited the source to be URL. How to give the username and password for downloading?

The public username and password seems to be

You can download the files by hand, place them in the build directory and fix checksums in the PKGBUILD if necessary.

srikanthradix · 2012-01-20 23:44:29

Can you please tell me where is the build directory? I am trying to figure out that one. I downloaded the files into ~/Downloads/ and copied them into
/var/tmp/aurbuild/build directory, but still getting the same error. I think I am putting into the wrong directory. But, not sure, where to put these files.

This is starting to look like help-vampirism...

I have tried putting the files in there as well. It didn't work.

Read the error message again. Look at the files you have there. Read the PKGBUILD. There is a typo somewhere.
