Hello.

I have tried fsw2.0pre6 on Slackware 8.0: it doesn't compile
(http://lists.freeswan.org/pipermail/design/2003-January/004096.html)

However, as suggested by DHR, the following patch workarounds this
problem:

*** Makefile.program Wed Feb  5 11:30:13 2003
--- Makefile.program.orig Wed Feb  5 11:33:14 2003
***************
*** 8,14 ****
  CFLAGS+= -Wall
  #CFLAGS+= -Wconversion
  #CFLAGS+= -Wmissing-prototypes
! #CFLAGS+= -Wpointer-arith
  CFLAGS+= -Wcast-qual
  #CFLAGS+= -Wmissing-declarations
  CFLAGS+= -Wstrict-prototypes
--- 8,14 ----
  CFLAGS+= -Wall
  #CFLAGS+= -Wconversion
  #CFLAGS+= -Wmissing-prototypes
! CFLAGS+= -Wpointer-arith
  CFLAGS+= -Wcast-qual
  #CFLAGS+= -Wmissing-declarations
  CFLAGS+= -Wstrict-prototypes

Another issue: make install creates the following directories:

/etc/rc0.d
/etc/rc1.d
/etc/rc2.d
/etc/rc3.d
/etc/rc4.d
/etc/rc5.d
/etc/rc6.d

and place a symbolic link to a non existent directory/file:

K68ipsec -> ../init.d/ipsec or
S47ipsec -> ../init.d/ipsec

Perhaps this is an issue that affects Slackware because it uses a BSD
style startup system.
