OpenSolaris Nevada

This is the distribution from the opensolaris.org guys, do not mix that up with os200805 which is the new OpenSolaris based distro from SUN.

• Select your development user. I will assume for the time being that the user is called freeswitch.
• Create the target directory for freeswitch

mkdir /opt/freeswitch; chown freeswitch /opt/freeswitch

• Give your build and development user software installation rights

usermod -P "Software Installation" freeswitch

• log out and log back in as the freeswitch user (so that the new permissions become active)

• download and unpack the new jds-cbe beta package:

/usr/sfw/bin/wget http://dlc.sun.com/osol/jds/downloads/cbe/test/desktop-cbe-1.7.0-rc1-x86.tar.bz2
gtar xvfz desktop-cbe-1.7.0-rc1-x86.tar.bz2"

Install JDS-CBE

cd desktop-cbe-1.7.0-rc1
./cbe-install

• leave everything as default. Select the SunStudio compiler as your default compiler.

• Download the spec-files-extra repository into a subdirectory called SFE

svn co https://pkgbuild.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pkgbuild/spec-files-extra/trunk SFE

• Load the jds-cbe environment

. /opt/dtbld/bin/env.sh

• Compile and install SFEunixodbc

cd SFE
pkgtool --download build SFEunixodbc.spec

• Download freeswitch trunk

svn co http://svn.freeswitch.org/svn/freeswitch/trunk fstrunk

• Prepare the freeswitch sources

cd fstrunk; ./bootstrap.sh

• and edit the modules.conf file to select which modules you would like to have installed

vim modules.conf

• Configure freeswitch sources for 64bit and let the c compiler apply some optimization

CFLAGS="-m64 -fast" CXXFLAGS="-m64 -fast" LDFLAGS="-m64" ./configure --prefix=/opt/freeswitch \

--enable-core-odbc-support --enable-core-libedit-support \

--enable-64 --with-openssl=/usr/sfw

• or for 32bit

CFLAGS="-m32 -fast" CXXYFLAGS="-m32 -fast" LDFLAGS="-m32" ./configure --prefix=/opt/freeswitch \

--enable-core-odbc-support --enable-core-libedit-support \

--with-openssl=/usr/sfw

• Drink a cup of coffee

• run make

gmake

• Install freeswitch into its target directory

gmake install

You are done

One of those days I will finish my SFE package than it will be even easier

Brian Leonard did a perfect writeup for people who would like to have their MacBook Pro multiboot Opensolaris 200805 and MacOS/X. You can find his Blog entry here. Took me a bit longer to find all this without his writeup so go there if you want a config like that, it will save you a lot of trouble

I always like to read where corporations running FOSS projects I am involved in want to take them. If this is of interest for you, here is an Interview with Simon Phipps about SUNs vision for its OpenSource future
