#Synopsis

HP-UX is a version of Unix for HP's PA-RISC and Integrity line of servers and workstations. HP-UX 11.x versions are pretty well supported by pkgsrc and it's also quite usable on 10.20.
#Preparations
##pkgsrc

Simply download the pkgsrc snapshot tarball as you would do on other architectures. You can also use CVS if its avalible.

XXX TODO: explain in pkgsrc page and link to there.
##Patches

Read Readme.HPUX for the required patches and prerequisites.
##Compiler

You will need a compiler which can be HP's ANSI C/C++ compiler or GCC, which is availible [from HP](http://hpacxx.external.hp.com/gcc/) or other third parties.
##Bootstrap

Bootstrapping is done the usual way.

    CC=path_to CXX=path_to ./bootstrap --abi 32 --compiler gcc

XXX TODO: explain in pkgsrc page and link to there.
#Audio

Audio playback works pretty well on Series 700 workstations through HP Audio and esound.

You will need to install the following depot beforehand:

    B6865AAA -- HP Audio Clients for Series 700 - English
