    One of the idea of the AIX open source team to enable users to build packages for their use as it is not possible to build each and everything.

    We provide all the build tools and compilers needed to build open source package on AIX from AIX toolbox.

    Kindly let us know if you face issue in building on AIX or have issue in setting up build environment for AIX.

    Here is a post that helps in building RPM packages on AIX.
