Hi Simon, > Please build and test it on any exotic (or non-exotic) systems > you may have access to.
I did so by creating a many-platforms build at https://github.com/gnu-inetutils/ci-check/actions/ (It doesn't take your tarball. It build off the git repository. But that should be sufficiently close.) Here are my findings so far: ================================================================================ Compilation error on Cygwin: CC tftpsubs.o ../../libinetutils/tftpsubs.c:68:10: fatal error: arpa/tftp.h: No such file or directory 68 | #include <arpa/tftp.h> | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~ According to gnulib's database, <arpa/tftp.h> is missing on: Cygwin 3.5.3, mingw, MSVC 14. ================================================================================ Compilation error on OpenBSD: CC ftpcmd.o In file included from ftpcmd.c:1: In file included from ../lib/stdlib.h:49: In file included from /usr/include/stdlib.h:42: ../lib/sys/types.h:28:3: error: "Please include config.h first." #error "Please include config.h first." ^ Explanation: https://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/Include-_003cconfig_002eh_003e.html ================================================================================ Compilation error on mingw: CC libgnu_a-poll.o In file included from ../../lib/poll.c:21: ../config.h:3862:18: error: duplicate 'unsigned' 3862 | #define sigset_t unsigned long | ^~~~~~~~ This is caused by inetutils/configure.ac: # sigset_t is a set of signals (4.4BSD) AC_CHECK_TYPE(sigset_t, , [AC_DEFINE([sigset_t], unsigned long, [Define to `unsigned long' if not defined in <signal.h>])], [IU_FLUSHLEFT([#include <sys/types.h> #include <signal.h> ])]) ================================================================================ Compilation error on MSVC: CC daemon.obj daemon.c ../lib\signal.h(637): warning C4114: same type qualifier used more than once D:\a\ci-check\ci-check\inetutils-2024-09-04\libinetutils\daemon.c(55): fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'sys/wait.h': No such file or directory make[2]: *** [Makefile:2203: daemon.obj] Error 2 Gnulib has a module that provides this header file: https://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/manual/html_node/sys_002fwait_002eh.html ================================================================================ Link error on Solaris 11 OmniOS: CCLD hostname Undefined first referenced symbol in file gethostbyname hostname.o (symbol belongs to implicit dependency /lib/amd64/libnsl.so.1) ld: fatal: symbol referencing errors.
