Source: lua-openssl
Version: 20151221-2
Severity: important
Justification: fails to build from source
Hi, Ondřej.
As you may have noticed, the x32 build of lua-openssl failed:
In file included from /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnux32/sys/sysctl.h:63:0,
from src/openssl.c:6987:
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnux32/bits/sysctl.h: At top level:
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnux32/bits/sysctl.h:19:3: error: #error "sysctl
system call is unsupported in x32 kernel"
# error "sysctl system call is unsupported in x32 kernel"
This use of sysctl is apparently intended to be a feature:
2014-04-19
Add rand.stir, which tries to be more robust than OpenSSL's default
RAND_poll implementation, which isn't chroot- or RLIMIT_NOFILE-safe
because it requires opening /dev/urandom. In particular, it will use
sysctl-based randomness sources on Linux and the BSDs (excluding OS X).
However, per https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=827881#10,
sysctl is deprecated in general and unavailable altogether on x32.
Could you please take a look?
Thanks!
