Cannot build wireshark - fails to build usr/pkgsrc/lang/python27 dependency (8.0 NetBSD vax)

[Supratim Sanyal]

Hello,

How does one get wireshark (or any package that needs python) to build
on 8.0 vax port? It appears test_float.py is failing.

Are you trying to build on an emmulator or actual Vax hardware? Some of
the MicroVax are missing certain floating instructions [1]. If you
can't use the emmulator maybe try pre-built python27 binary for netbsd
7.0 to get python support.

If you haven't already try re-posting on the netbsd/vax mlist (list your
actual hardware so people know what you're trying to build on).

Running on a recent simh build (MicroVAX 3900 simulator V4.0-0 Current
git commit id: aabb6897) on Windows. Thanks for the pointer to pre-built
stuff from 7.0, will give them a shot first.

OK, will post to the mailing list with simh ini file.

Thank you.
