[OmniOS-discuss] Building illumos-gate on OmniOS progress

[Dan McDonald]

I have a series of commits to illumos-gate that will allow illumos-gate to be built on OmniOS, but with these build-failures specifically on OmniOS:

1.) Lint is still mildly dirty.  I believe I've narrowed it down to a series of openssl errors only, but there's still going to be lint until OI switches to a more modern openssl or illumos-gate does the Keith W. thing and have its own copy.

2.) I've got two ELF-runtime check complaints left, but I don't want to do to much more to the exception_list/check_rtime  file.

3.) Your .env file for building on OmniOS will need a few extra variables set to ='#', which will cause the IPP listener not to build, and SMB printing to not be available.

Are those exceptions enough to make you go "Not good enough"?  Or are they tolerable?

If you, the OmniOS community, are okay with this, I can start attempting to upstream these changes.  If you want me to have perfectly silent builds on OmniOS, I don't think it's going to happen realistically in the foreseeable future.

Please let me know, and thanks,
