I finally got my old 712/60 back up and running with HP-UX 10.20, and I was
wondering if there is well-known archive of ported apps (such as bash, ssh,
gcc, and other GNU/Linux-ish niceties) for the platform. I found the
Porting Center at http://hpux.ece.ualberta.ca, and that one seems to be
dedicated to 11.x support, so is there something similar in place for older
HP-UX releases?

Thanks!

well, gcc is available here (binaries) for 10.20:

As for the rest, you're probably going to have to downl sources and
build. The Porting Center mostly has 11.x support because 11.0 and
prior are no longer supported. 11.0 support from HP was discontinued
last year, and 10.20 died I don't know how long ago.

You may check
ftp://ftp.thewrittenword.com/packages/by-architecture
(sometimes slow/down, so patience required)
and
ftp://ftp.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/local/unix/hpux/10.x
(older stuff)

(BTW, I'm collecting/compiling software for "ancient" OSs too)

Thanks both of you - this will be very helpful.
