** Also affects: nspr (Ubuntu Plucky) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Lena Voytek (lvoytek) Status: In Progress ** Description changed: [Impact] Builds of nspr fail in oracular due to GCC-14 standards, which raises issues due to incompatible pointer types and function calls. This should be backported to Oracular to fix the pr testsuite and simplify future package rebuilds. The issue is fixed by a reformatted upstream commit which fixes the type conversions and function calls. [Test Plan] Since this is an FTBFS, the bug can be reproduced by attempting to build in oracular. A successful build should show that the bug is fixed, as it both compiles testfile.c and runs the test suite that uses it during runtime with: cd nspr/pr/tests && grep -v '^\(fdcach\|gethost\|getproto\|nblayer\|peek\|socket\|vercheck\)$' ./runtests.sh | sh - /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/nspr/dist [Where problems could occur] If problems were to occur, they would arise when running the nspr/pr test suite. This patch modifies testfile.c, which is used by the majority of tests to read and write data as they run. Due to upstream reformatting the file prior to the commit that fixes the issue, the patch had to be cleaned up to apply against the previous format. This could cause changes to logic if the patch were mis-applied. [Other Info] - - The fix should be added to Oracular as a "zero-day" SRU. + + Adding to Plucky once the archive is available, then backporting to + oracular [Original Description] nspr currently fails to build in oracular with the following: testfile.c:126:41: error: passing argument 3 of ‘pthread_create’ from incompatible pointer type This should be fixed upstream with https://hg.mozilla.org/projects/nspr/rev/e178d3d9b47b2479f22f208d6225eda81918dae1 Upstream bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1904395 Debian bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1075322 ** Changed in: nspr (Ubuntu Oracular) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: nspr (Ubuntu Oracular) Assignee: (unassigned) => Lena Voytek (lvoytek) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2081110 Title: FTBFS for oracular 2:4.35-1.1ubuntu1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nspr/+bug/2081110/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
