Package: squid Version: 2.7.STABLE7-1 I was trying to build a fresh copy of squid on a new testing box, but the build failed with the following:
In file included from /usr/include/sys/capability.h:32, from tools.c:50: /usr/include/linux/capability.h:73: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before ‘__le32’ I'm running Sid/Unstable on a Sparc64 box (Sunfire T2000). Custom-built 2.6.31 kernel (SMP/niagara). This appears to stem from Squid having a workaround for problems in the linux system includes and libcap. Debian unstable now has a new version of libcap2 and the kernel where the workaround isn't needed. This breaks the build, as the workaround is now conflicts with libcap2: http://www.squid-cache.org/mail-archive/squid-dev/200910/0117.html Sounds like upstream is working on removing the kludge "officially". In the meantime, Gentoo has already hit this issue: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=264770 And portage has a patch that appears to fix the build under Debian (squid-2-capability.patch), which I've shamelessly included here from http://gentoo.mirrors.tds.net/pub/gentoo-portage/net-proxy/squid/files/squid-2-capability.patch: --- configure.in 2009-02-04 01:44:06.000000000 +0100 +++ configure.in 2009-06-23 20:59:28.000000000 +0200 @@ -1694,7 +1694,6 @@ db.h \ db_185.h \ aio.h \ - sys/capability.h \ ,,,[ #if HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H #include <sys/types.h> @@ -1728,6 +1727,13 @@ #endif ]) +dnl Check for libcap header +AC_ARG_ENABLE(caps, +[ --disable-caps disable usage of Linux capabilities library to control privileges]) +if test "x$enable_caps" != xno; then + AC_CHECK_HEADERS( sys/capability.h ) +fi + dnl Check for IP-Filter headers.
