Source: ogdi-dfsg Version: 4.1.1+ds-1 Severity: serious Tags: ftbfs Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
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 ogdi-dfsg to FTBFS in sid with: | checking for string.h... yes | checking for inttypes.h... yes | checking for stdint.h... yes | checking for strings.h... yes | checking for sys/stat.h... yes | checking for sys/types.h... yes | checking for unistd.h... yes | checking for rpc/rpc.h... no | checking for libtirpc... no | configure: error: Package requirements (libtirpc) were not met: | | Package 'libtirpc', required by 'virtual:world', not found | | Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you | installed software in a non-standard prefix. | | Alternatively, you may set the environment variables RPC_CFLAGS | and RPC_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. | See the pkg-config man page for more details. | tail -v -n \+0 config.log This can 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
