Hi devs,<div><br></div><div>so now I can configure G7 (revision 55464) on AIX 7.1 by command:</div><div><br></div><div>export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/apps/bin</div><div>CFLAGS="-lstdc++" ./configure --prefix=$HOME/apps --with-proj-includes=$HOME/apps/include --with-proj-libs=$HOME/apps/lib --with-proj-share=$HOME/apps/share --with-gdal=$HOME/apps/bin/gdal-config --with-libs=$HOME/apps/lib --without-tiff --without-png --without-opengl --without-tcltk --without-fftw --without-jpeg --enable-largefile --without-postgres</div>

<div><br></div><div>gmake on this machine is GNU Make 3.80</div>
<div>make is probably native AIX make, but I really do not know its version, make -v does not work, nothing about it in man page. Trying to run make I get only errors - see g7_make_output.txt</div><div><br></div><div>thanks for any help</div>

</div>Or simply running ./configure and report the error. Users trying to<br>
compile GRASS are, according to the official documentation, advised to<br>
run<br>
./configure <optional custom options><br>
make<br>
make install<br>

</div>I would like to see support for at least FreeBSD (BSD is the<br>
predecessor of nearly all current operating systems), IBM AIX (a<br>
commercial unix-based OS), and HP-UX (another commercial unix-based<br>
OS). If we can adjust the G7 configure script to compile G7 on IBM AIX<br>
and HP-UX, we would be to my knowledge the only GIS package available<br>
for these high-performance operating systems, and I assume that we<br>
want G7 to be available on commercial high-performance operating<br>
systems.<br>
