>Description:
tightvnc ships it's own set of config/cf and imake/makedepend. Even when I use symlinked version of them from /usr/openwin, the build process seems to be terminally confused about the platform it's building on ("forgets" to include unistd.h, sys/utsname.h etc.)

(cd Xvnc && ./configure && make)
mv -f Makefile Makefile.bak
imake -I../..//config/cf -DTOPDIR=../../ -DCURDIR=.
gcc -fpcc-struct-return DefaultGcc2i386Opt   -I../..//include -I../..//exports/include/X11  -I../../ -I../..//exports/include  -DNOSTDHDRS      -DNOSTDHDRS -DCPP_PROGRAM="\"/lib/cpp\"" -I/usr/pkg/include -c

>How-To-Repeat:
Build net/tightvnc from pkgsrc on Solaris 10.

Outside of pkgsrc PATH=/usr/openwin/bin:$PATH ./configure and make work fine (yeah, not a great help I guess)

 With pkgsrc bootstrapped with gcc net/tightvnc fails like the following

    /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc -xO3 -Xa    -I../.././ -I../.././/exports/include  -Dsun -DSVR4      -I/usr/include -I/usr/pkg/include -c  makestrs.c
    sh: /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc: not found
    *** Error code 1
    make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `makestrs.o'
    Current working directory /tmp/obj_pkgsrc/net/tightvnc/work/vnc_unixsrc/Xvnc/config/util
    *** Error code 1

 The package completely ignores pkgsrc settings. It tries to use sunpro
 which is not installed on my system while pkgsrc was bootstrapped with gcc.
 What is the correct way to configure imake-based project for pkgsrc?
 Addition of

 	 #define CcCmd ${CC}

 to Xvnc/config/cf/site.def solves this immediate problem but I'm not
 sure this is the correct fix. I need a full list of variables to modify
 (CcCmd, DefaultCCOptions etc.).

 If it really (still) ships its own copy of imake as the original PR
 says, the chances of it working are ... limited.

 Best bet is probably to try to get it to use pkgsrc imake, or patch it
 to rip out imake entirely.

 If it "just" wants to use some of its own imake templates, that's
 usually less of a problem; e.g. xview-config does this without
 (mostly) dying horribly.

 As of 2021, tightvnc is in fact still shipping its own copy of imake
 and the imake templates, the latter being quite old even by imake
 standards and therefore quite broken.

 That it builds anywhere is a surprise. If anyone cares about making it
 build anywhere else, the first thing to do is forcibly delete the
 included imake and get it to use pkgsrc imake.
