I suspect that the above workaround is from the time of apr 0.x. Apr 1.x builds with -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE and takes some care not to change ABI if _FILE_OFFSET_BITS changes. One remaining issue was fixed in 1.4.2-8 / #616323. If there are other issues, those should be fixed in apr, too. > I'm Ccing the libapr1 maintainers for any ideas. > > Dominic, could you try hardwiring has_large_files_conflict() to > return 0 (so it doesn't strip the flags anymore) and see if that > passes the test suite on i386 with Perl 5.14? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
