openssh 3.0.1 rpm for sparc (redhat 6.x)

openssh 3.0.1 rpm for sparc (redhat 6.x)

[ultra]

having problems getting openssh to compile on my redhat 6.1 box (with
6.2 updates)
so i was wondering if someone has a working version in rpm ?
i only found a redhat 7.x version on rpmfind
(i thought there was never a redhat 7.x for the sparc?)

Rebuild from the src rpm available at openssh.org. Should work.

   ok tried that :
   
Run "sparc32 bash" before building the rpm.

Thnx, that fixed the problem

P.s. why can I rebuild a lot of src.rpms witouth this ?

Because a lot of them are smart enough to use CPP macros like
__sparc_v9__ or __arch64__ to determine things, rather than assuming
sparc64 = 64-bit || v9 instructions. The compiler is much better at
determining this (CC="gcc -mcpu=ultrasparc" for example) than `uname'.

Because not many applications try to build 64-bit executables on 
suitable platforms. What happenes it that openSSL detects a 64 bit KERNEL and
therefore assumes you want a 64 bit application/userland.
Most applications dont give a shit about 64-bits and builds a 32 bit binary.

   Thnx, that fixed the problem
   
   P.s. why can I rebuild a lot of src.rpms witouth this ?

Because we lack a 64-bit build environement on many distributions.
