hi guys,
I'm a developer of a package in Debian, recently I'm told that my
package won't build on debian-kfreebsd anymore.
Then I tried, even a previous version won't build. And the problem is
about the ptrace.h file. PTRACE_PEEKDATA was not defined there.
So in linux, these macro are named PTRACE_PEEKDATA, PTRACE_POKEDATA and
etc, and in FreeBSD, those are called PT_READ_D and etc. In debian-kfreebsd,
you'll see "PTRACE_PEEKDATA" in `man ptrace`, but in the header file
'sys/ptrace.h', you can see only PT_READ_D there. In my ubuntu machine, I
found that PT_READ_D-like names are still there, where PTRACE_PEEKDATA-like
names are defined as alias there.
I wonder which one should debian-kfreebsd follow, but I believe an set
of alias will be needed, otherwise everybody will need a dirty hack for it.
Is this a but, or am I wrong?
best,
