Sprite-specific changes to the distribution are contained in the sprite
subdirectory.
Applying new patches:
Apply the patches to the sources in the dist subdirectory.
Go to the sprite subdirectory and check out any files whose version
in the dist directory have been modified by the patch.
Use rcsmerge to merge any Sprite changes into the new file. You'll
have to look at the log to figure out which version to merge.
Usually it will be -r1.1 -r1.2. Sometimes the changes to the
distribution means you won't need the Sprite version anymore.
Move the file and RCS file out of the way, change the symbolic
link in the parent directory.
Make a symbolic link for config.h in /sprite/src/cmds/perl:
ln -s '$MACHINE.md/config.h' .
Run Configure once for each machine type, e.g sun3, sun4, ds3100.
You have to run it on a machine of each type. This will create
a config.h for each type, which will be put in the machine
dependent directories via the symbolic link.
Delete the symbolic link for config.h.
Run mkmf.
cd to the 't' directory and run TEST. All tests should pass, except
for a few on the sun3 but I've never worried about it since we
don't use the sun3's much anymore.
Install it.
Delete all the .orig file from the distribution.
You also need to install the programs a2p, s2p, and h2ph.
