In general packages for older versions of AIX can be installed on newer versions thanks to binary compatibility. So, you should be able to install this rpm on AIX 5.3.

Assuming you pulled this from the AIX Toolbox for Linux Applications:
http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/p/os/aix/linux/toolbox/download.html
there are installation tips linked to from that site here:
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/README.txt

In general you can issue a command such as:

rpm -i <package name>

or

rpm -ihv <package name>

the second version will print extra information as the package is unpacked.

I gave

CXXFLAGS="-I/usr/bin"\
DSOFLAGS="-L/usr/lib"\
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib"\
./configure

gcc,gettext,ghoshtscript is present in usr/bin and jpeg,libpng,tiff and zlib are present in /usr/lib...

configuration was successful........

but when i gave make command, compilations was happening and suddenly the following error was thrown..

creating libcups_s.a
collect2: library libm not found
make: 1254-004 The error code for the last command is 1.
stop.
make: 1254-004 The error code for the last command is 1.
stop.

What is missing here??

Thanks,

As mentioned in another post, you should definitely try compiling with the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet options.

Have you looked at the output generated by configure? This might give you some hints as to what types of dependencies might still be missing, even if they don't result in errors.

The error you have posted looks like it might be related to OpenSSL support. Have you installed OpenSSL?

If you get this working please let us know the solution to your problem.

Hi i solved this problem.....

I installed openssl, and removed _httpBIOMethods line but of no use.
i removed -fstck protector line in Makedefs file. and gave ./configure. tat was the mistake.. after removing should give
make command.

now it got compiled few more and again has given error.

g++ not found.

Installed libstdc++ but still giving error.

Anybody has any idea where g++ is available for download......

Thanks,

You need the GNU C++ compiler. On the AIX Toolbox for Linux, this package is listed as:
gcc-c++ "C++ support for GCC" package from the AIX Toolbox for Linux
