Recompile the driver with PACKAGE_UIDS defined and MUDLIB_ERROR_HANDLER
undefined.

heh oops didn't realize 'No error handler for error:' was because the master

You forgot to upgrade your mudlibs /include/driver directory with the
one supplied with the new driver source. The driver changed the return 
type of the origin() function, which works if you upgrade that directory
so the mud uses those new defines too.

Oh you mean it gave you what was wrong?  When I tried to compile v21.7a10 on
a Sun it just gave me the linker error.  Don't know what causes it.  I just
gave up.  This was on SunOS 4.1.3_U1.  It seems to work fine on Solarus 2.4 aka
SunOS 5.4

not sure how to handle this.  sunos 4 seems to have inet_ntoa() but no
inet_aton()

Yep. That went wrong. Leto know about the OS (Sun) I'm trying to compile it on.

But you can try to rm configure.h and make it build from scratch
again. If you have a few defines wrong it likely is a problem
that you used a tarred tree from a system that already did a build
on its own. (either you or beek :)

Although I see that making sense with how many people run Windows95 I find
the whole idea of a MU*/Windows95 combo to be nauseating. *gag*

None of the above... got a fresh alpha.tar.gz from aragorn.ui.no
And then diffed local_options (old one) with options.h to see the differences
Adjusted them, and then started compiling. Gives problems with Sun OS, but definately NOT with Linux (in one go,except I need to fix the combat busters ;))

In previous versions, I couldn't compile using Linux, but everything with Sun Os went fine!

Please, help me! :) I'm desperate <G>
