Package: apr
Tags: ftbfs, hppa, lfs
Version: 1.7.2-2
On 32-bit platforms it's necessary to compile programs and libraries
with Large File Support (LFS) in order to allow them to function correctly on
filesystems with > 2GB or 4GB size.
This can be solved by adding "-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" to
the CFLAGS variable when compiling.
apr is currently missing this LFS support and as such it triggers
build-from-source errors in other packages like "subversion" or "devscripts"
on such 32-bit platforms.
There are various possibilities how to add those two defines,
e.g. adding
DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS = future=+lfs
or by manually adding the output of
getconf LFS_CFLAGS
to the CFLAGS variable. Please note, on 64-bit platforms the return value
will be empty which is correct as those flags are not needed on 64-bit arches.
Here is one suggested patch for apr from me:

Please apply this (or another patch) to allow apr to build with LFS support.
Thanks,

It seems a large transition will be needed for 64bit time_t, anyway. And
glibc enforces _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 if _TIME_BITS=64 is set. apr should
do both transitions at the same time.
It seems there won't be a transition for i386 but the whole point of
i386 is running old binaries.
https://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/64bit-time
This is fixed now as apr has been rebuilt with 64bit time_t, which
implies 64 bit ino_t.
