Source: liblxi Version: 1.20-1 Severity: serious Tags: ftbfs Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past) User: debian-gl...@lists.debian.org Usertags: libtirpc-dev
Dear maintainer, Starting with glibc 2.31, support for NIS (libnsl library) has been moved to a separate libnsl2 package. In order to allow a smooth transition, a libnsl-dev, which depends on libtirpc-dev, has been added to the libc6-dev package. The libnsl-dev dependency has been temporarily dropped in the 2.37-15.1 NMU, as part of the 64-bit time_t transition. This causes liblxi to FTBFS in sid with: | Found pkg-config: /usr/bin/pkg-config (1.8.1) | Run-time dependency avahi-client found: YES 0.8 | Run-time dependency libxml-2.0 found: YES 2.9.14 | Run-time dependency threads found: YES | Has header "avahi-client/client.h" : YES | Did not find CMake 'cmake' | Found CMake: NO | Run-time dependency libtirpc found: NO (tried pkgconfig) | | ../src/meson.build:30:14: ERROR: Dependency "libtirpc" not found, tried pkgconfig | | A full log can be found at /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/obj-x86_64-linux-gnu/meson-logs/meson-log.txt | cd obj-x86_64-linux-gnu && tail -v -n \+0 meson-logs/meson-log.txt This could be fixed by adding an explicit Build-Depends on libtirpc-dev. The glibc change will likely be reverted in the short term, but given its a change we want to do for Trixie, this will only lower the severity of the bug. Regards Aurelien
