Package: libnewlib-dev
Version: 1.18.0-6
Severity: wishlist

I have a really hard time compiling anything against libnewlib-dev,
for example, <stddef.h> is missing and wint_t (sys/_types.h) missing,
/usr/lib/newlib/i486-linux-gnu/include/sys/types.h includes a file
called features.h which isn’t found, not to speak of linux/* headers
that aren’t delivered either.

I basically tried:

cd pathtomkshsourcetree¹
CPPFLAGS='-nostdinc -I/usr/lib/newlib/i486-linux-gnu/include' 
LDFLAGS='-nostdlib -L/usr/lib/newlib/i486-linux-gnu/lib 
/usr/lib/newlib/i486-linux-gnu/lib/crt0.o 
/usr/lib/newlib/i486-linux-gnu/lib/crt1.o' LIBS=-lc mksh Build.sh -r

① apt-get source mksh #from sid, there it's already extracted, for example


The entire package does not come with a̲n̲y̲ kind of information
what the correct CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, LIBS are, anyway.
