Follow-up Comment #1, bug #45445 (project findutils): AIX7.1 libc.a contains getdelim/getline. I cannot find any AIX documentation on theses functions. Apparently the AIX getdelim does not expand the output buffer. I was able to eliminate the test error by editing configure to force:
ac_cv_func_getdelim=no ac_cv_func_getline=no Thus, causing the gnulib version of theses function to be used. I also set CPPFLAGS=-D_NOGETDELIM=1, before running configure, to avoid possible prototype conflicts. *** configure.~1~ Sat May 16 08:28:18 2009 --- configure Mon Aug 31 13:24:13 2015 *************** *** 17188,17197 **** --- 17188,17198 ---- fi done + ac_cv_func_getdelim=no : *************** *** 17394,17403 **** --- 17395,17406 ---- sed 's/^/| /' conftest.$ac_ext >&5 ac_cv_func_getline=no fi + ac_cv_func_getline=no + rm -f core conftest.err conftest.$ac_objext conftest_ipa8_conftest.oo conftest$ac_exeext conftest.$ac_ext fi { echo "$as_me:$LINENO: result: $ac_cv_func_getline" >&5 echo "${ECHO_T}$ac_cv_func_getline" >&6; } _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?45445> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
