Source: zfs-linux Version: 2.2.3-1 Severity: serious Tags: ftbfs Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past) User: debian-gl...@lists.debian.org Usertags: libtirpc-dev
Dear maintainer, Starting with glibc 2.31, support for NIS (libnsl library) has been moved to a separate libnsl2 package. In order to allow a smooth transition, a libnsl-dev, which depends on libtirpc-dev, has been added to the libc6-dev package. The libnsl-dev dependency has been temporarily dropped in the 2.37-15.1 NMU, as part of the 64-bit time_t transition. This causes zfs-linux to FTBFS in sid with: ... checking for blkid... no checking for blkid/blkid.h... yes checking for main in -lblkid... yes checking for library containing xdrmem_create... no checking for libtirpc... no checking for rpc/xdr.h... no checking for rpc/xdr.h... no checking for rpc/xdr.h... no checking for rpc/xdr.h... no configure: WARNING: cannot find tirpc via pkg-config or in the standard locations configure: error: in `/build/zfs-linux-2.2.3': configure: error: neither libc sunrpc support nor libtirpc is available, try installing libtirpc-devel This could be fixed by adding an explicit Build-Depends on libtirpc-dev. The glibc change will likely be reverted in the short term, but given its a change we want to do for Trixie, this will only lower the severity of the bug. Cheers, Andreas
