Your rant is misdirected -- it is deprecated by the GNU C Library, not by GCC. https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Reading_002fClosing-Directory.html So the problem with using readdir_r is that Bacula cannot read directory entries with very long names on some systems (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=995839). __Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
