For anyone who might be encountering problems building Qpopper or other software on a Solaris system and seeing a
checking size of unsigned long int... configure: error: cannot compute
sizeof (unsigned long int), 77 error message at the
configure stage or seeing ld: fatal: Symbol referencing
errors at the make stage, try running
configure with CFLAGS=-gstabs+, i.e. try
./configure CFLAGS=-gstabs+. Since Solaris uses shadow
passwords, you should also use the --enable-specialauth option
as well, i.e. use the following configure command:
./configure --enable-specialauth CFLAGS=-gstabs+
configure step
allowed me to resolve issues I was having installing Qpopper 4.0.16 on a
Solaris 5.7 system.
