Trying to native compile Linux Dialog
Hi,

as my thread has been moved to Debian.
I don't run Debian machine.
My machine is Linux embedded router - mipsel.
Sources come from Debian, but Dialog sources are GNU,
so no Debian specific.

Native compilation vs. crosscompilation,
exactly to let you know, that I don't run Debian machine.

Today native compiled Dialog once again.
No errors.

Code:
LEDIR=\"/opt/dialog/share/locale\" -c textbox.c
gcc -g -O2  -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -DLOCALEDIR=\"/opt/dialog/share/locale\" -c ui_getc.c
gcc -g -O2  -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -DLOCALEDIR=\"/opt/dialog/share/locale\" -c util.c

popularity-contest

POPULARITY-CONTEST(8)													     POPULARITY-CONTEST(8)

NAME

       popularity-contest - list the most popular Debian packages

SYNOPSIS

       popularity-contest

DESCRIPTION

       The  popularity-contest command gathers information about Debian packages installed on the system, and prints the name of the most recently
       used executable program in that package as well as its last-accessed time (atime) and last-attribute-changed time (ctime) to stdout.

       When aggregated with the output of popularity-contest from many other systems, this information is valuable  because  it  can  be  used	to
       determine  which  Debian  packages are commonly installed, used, or installed and never used.  This helps Debian maintainers make decisions
       such as	which packages should be installed by default on new systems.

       The resulting statistic is available from the project home page https://popcon.debian.org/.

       Normally, popularity-contest is run from a cron(8) job, /etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest, which  automatically  submits  the  results	to
       Debian  package	maintainers  (only  once  a week) according to the settings in /etc/popularity-contest.conf and /usr/share/popularity-con-
       test/default.conf.

SEE ALSO

       The popularity-contest FAQ at /usr/share/doc/popularity-contest/FAQ popcon-largest-unused(8), cron(8)

       Additional documentation is in /usr/share/doc/popularity-contest/.
