Thanks! I'll look into that. As I said, the strsignal(3) man page still 
refers to sys_siglist, so that would need updating.

Cheerio,

Indeed it does, you can report a documentation bug here:

From the glibc 2.32 release notes:

Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:
[...]
* The deprecated arrays sys_siglist, _sys_siglist, and sys_sigabbrev
  are no longer available to newly linked binaries, and their declarations
  have been removed from .  They are exported solely as
  compatibility symbols to support old binaries.  All programs should use
  strsignal instead.

A bit of Googling would suggest that sys_siglist is only available on BSD.


[arch-general] Missing sys_siglist declaration

2020-10-01 Thread Hauke Fath

Hi,

on an arch machine updated yesterday, my XEmacs does not build because 
the 'sys_siglist' declaration is gone from , where the 
strsignal(3) man page says it should be.


Searching the usual suspects didn't bring up anything. What did I miss?

Cheerio,
Hauke
