* Mats Erik Andersson <[email protected]>: | You reported in another letter that inetutils 1.7 functions properly, | but that inetutils 1.8 does not so with your 32-bit system. It is clear | from the first message that name resolution does not succeed.
Right. | Doing a difference check between version 1.7 and 1.8 of the directories | 'libicmp/' and 'ping/', it strikes me that Gnulib introduces into | 'Makefile.in' macros related to getaddrinfo() when moving from 1.7 to 1.8. | Could you experiment somewhat with 'config.h' in the manner of preferring | gethostbyname() over getaddrinfo()? Improvements? 1.7 have: #define HAVE_GETADDRINFO 1 #define HAVE_GETDOMAINNAME 1 #define HAVE_GETHOSTNAME 1 1.9.4 have: #define GNULIB_TEST_GETADDRINFO 1 #define GNULIB_TEST_GETDOMAINNAME 1 #define GNULIB_TEST_GETHOSTNAME 1 #define HAVE_GETDOMAINNAME 1 #define HAVE_GETHOSTBYNAME 1 #define HAVE_GETHOSTNAME 1 #define HAVE_GETSERVBYNAME 1 #define HAVE_DECL_GETADDRINFO 1 #define HAVE_DECL_GETDOMAINNAME 1
