Package: xwayland Version: 2:23.2.4-1 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 xwayland to FTBFS in sid with: | Configuring version-config.h using configuration | Configuring xkb-config.h using configuration | Configuring xwayland-config.h using configuration | Run-time dependency glproto found: YES 1.4.17 | Run-time dependency gl found: YES 1.2 | Dependency glproto found: YES 1.4.17 (cached) | Dependency gl found: YES 1.2 (cached) | Run-time dependency libtirpc found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake) | Has header "rpc/rpc.h" : NO | | ../os/meson.build:63:8: ERROR: Problem encountered: secure-rpc requested, but neither libtirpc or libc RPC support were found | | 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
