A little "easy setup" for MIPSIV - optxeno

A little "easy setup" for MIPSIV - optxeno
This is a collection of tools I use regularly and quickly bootstrap for IRIX on average, so I made a version:

http://ftp.irixnet.org/setup/optxeno-mips4.tar.gz

Just extract it and put it so it works in /opt/xeno

It has:

Awk
Bash (5)
bzip2
curl (with SSL)
dropbear (SSH client)
gettext
libiconv
mandoc
mbedtls
perl (5.28)
rsync
screen
XZ
zlib

Everything is MIPSPro, MIPSIV with -TARG for R10000 (it should work on R5k, I tested), N32

Please let me know if this works on your boxes and if you identify any issues. I'm open to expanding this further, upgrading things etc.

It looks to be working well on the Onyx4 so far. I'll put it on the O2 a little later, but I don't expect that I'll have any issues there, either. Thanks for this, it's a nice and very useful collection of software!

Wow, thanks! I recently have rerurned my O2 to life and this is what I exactly need for it!

A MIPS III version:

http://ftp.irixnet.org/setup/optxenomips3-v2.tar.gz

Please test if you're interested in this.

Release notes/changes:

No bash this time. I originally was gonna have git be part of this, but my focuses have shifted for now, and bash thus is no longer necessary.

No gettext/iconv this time either.

Perl won't do MIPS III, but I only built that to compile OpenSSL. Everything else should work on MIPS III but I'll fix it if it doesn't.

dropbear works, both server and client, also has X forwarding now! test it!!!!!!!!!

vim included

Pigz included

Screen termcap wasn't included last time. Now included for use with tic to install it properly.

I built this on an Octane because I was having some deps that needed updating from last time, so if I broke something for MIPS III, that's why. I'll fix it if you find any problems.

RE: A little "easy setup" for MIPSIV - optxeno
FYI, I noticed that the the bz* utilities, screen, and snarf all put their manpages in /opt/xeno/man while everything else uses /opt/xeno/share/man instead.  It'd be better to consolidate them all in one place.

I corrected that in the MIPS III release, I think. Some of the makefiles were putting them in the wrong places.

RE: A little "easy setup" for MIPSIV - optxeno
Code:
/opt/xeno/sbin/dropbear: rld: Fatal Error: Cannot Successfully map soname 'libpthread.so'



This might be beacuase I'm using Irix 6.2. I tried adding xeno libs in my LD_LIBRARYN32_PATH, no dice.

RE: A little "easy setup" for MIPSIV - optxeno
You can't use this on 6.2 it definitely won't work. You'll need to build it yourself.

https://matt.ucc.asn.au/dropbear/dropbear.html

Also does 6.2 have /dev/urandom?

Anyways none of these tools here are compatible with 6.2; I don't own any 6.2 machines I'm sorry.
