Solaris/x86 support is scheduled for StrategoXT 0.9.4. Work has begun on pinpointing what is different from already working systems.

The following packages are needed:

• GNU m4
• GNU autoconf
• GNU automake
• GCC
• GNU make
• teTeX

Advisable packages to install:

• libiconv
• GNU grep

You can get pre-compiled versions of these packages at http://www.sunfreeware.com/

StrategoXT 0.9.2 compiles on Solaris 8/x86. Still one problem with boxenv/latex. Boxenv assumes latex binary is in ${LATEX}/bin/ , but the latex binary is not always located there.

The latex binary is now located by the configure script. Not yet tested on Solaris however.
