Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #5611: bjam: define the right OS name on Hurd https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/5611 <p> Report from Pino Toscano (see <a class="ext-link" href="http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=630652"><span class="icon">​</span>http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=630652</a>): </p> <p> Currently bjam does not identify Hurd when using e.g. os.name in jam scripts: </p> <pre class="wiki"> $ bjam -v | head -n1 Boost.Jam Version 3.1.19. OS=UNKNOWN. </pre><p> The attached patch (which should be suitable for upstream inclusion) sets the correct #define's for Hurd in bjam, adding also the path detection for the bjam test suite. </p> <pre class="wiki"> $ bjam -v | head -n1 Boost.Jam Version 3.1.19. OS=HURD. </pre> en-us Boost C++ Libraries /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/5611 Trac 1.4.3 smr@… Thu, 16 Jun 2011 01:55:53 GMT attachment set https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/5611 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/5611 <ul> <li><strong>attachment</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">hurd-bjam_os.patch</span> </li> </ul> Ticket Vladimir Prus Mon, 20 Jun 2011 21:24:27 GMT <link>https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/5611#comment:1 </link> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/5611#comment:1</guid> <description> <p> It seems to me that while this patch appears safe, it is of limited utility, because builtin.jam does not know about Hurd either.
