[Mageia-dev] An update broke checkinstall build - help?

2013-01-06 Thread Johnny A. Solbu
I have problems figuring out how to fix checkinstall.
A recent update on my cauldron system, broke building of «checkinstall», and I 
don't know how to fix it.
I've tested an opensuse package, and it builds. and I can't figure out which 
opensuse patch fixes it.

I'm temptet to just dropp it. It's not in mga1 or 2, and it seems to be 
abandoned upstream. last version was released in 2008.

The code contains tests like :

#if (GLIBC_MINOR = 4)

And their create-localdecls script will define it for each known
version (from 0 to 7) or default to 1. Because 17 is not between 0 and
7 and 1 = 4 it is using the readlink prototype of a very old glibc...

This patch seems to fix it
https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file?file=installwatch-glibc_minor.patchpackage=checkinstallproject=openSUSE%3AFactory
but I didn't try to build with it

Ah and it just broke now because we have a patch adding the values up
to 16... checkinstall-mdv-fix-glibc-detection.patch
