Hi, I tried current svn (svn://svn.debian.org/pkg-pam/trunk/pam/), and the following issues arose:
1) PATH_MAX usage in modules/pam_cracklib/pam_cracklib.c: gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -I../../libpam/include -I../../libpamc/include -g -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_REENTRANT -fPIC -O2 -MT pam_cracklib.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/pam_cracklib.Tpo -c pam_cracklib.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/pam_cracklib.o pam_cracklib.c:97: error: 'PATH_MAX' undeclared here (not in a function) make[4]: *** [pam_cracklib.lo] Error 1 This is unfortunate as it is in a struct, so fixing this properly is maybe not easy. One possiblity is to just conditionalize the libcracklib2-dev Build-Depends for hurd-i386 which makes the build ignore pam_cracklib and continue successfully, however the build then later aborts in binary-arch stage because the pam-cracklib package cannot find its files. I am not sure what to best do here, maybe a Debian-specific #define PATH_MAX 4096 at the top of pam_cracklib.c is easiest. 2) Various libpam source files #include <pthread.h> and use functions like pthread_mutex_lock(), but libpam does not link to -lpthread. This works on GNU/Linux where libpthread is inside libc, but not on GNU/Hurd where it is seperate: gcc -I../../../libpam/include -I../../../libpamc/include -I./.. -fpie -g -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_REENTRANT -fPIC -O2 -pie -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-O1 -o .libs/upperLOWER upperLOWER.o -L/build/mbanck/pam-0.99.7.1/Linux-PAM/libpam /build/mbanck/pam-0.99.7.1/Linux-PAM/libpam/.libs/libpam.so -ldl /build/mbanck/pam-0.99.7.1/Linux-PAM/libpam/.libs/libpam.so: undefined reference to `pthread_mutex_lock' /build/mbanck/pam-0.99.7.1/Linux-PAM/libpam/.libs/libpam.so: undefined reference to `pthread_mutex_unlock' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status When I add -lpthread to libpam_la_LINK in libpam/Makefile, this works fine, but I believe this is a general problem in the build system which should get fixed properly in configure.in and Makefile.am etc. 3) debian/patches-applied/038_support_hurd has a leftover hunk about MAXPATHLEN for modules/pam_rhosts/pam_rhosts_auth.c which yields this build error: gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -I../../libpam/include -I../../libpamc/include -g -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_REENTRANT -fPIC -O2 -MT pam_rhosts_auth.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/pam_rhosts_auth.Tpo -c pam_rhosts_auth.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/pam_rhosts_auth.o pam_rhosts_auth.c: In function 'pam_iruserok': pam_rhosts_auth.c:593: error: 'pbuf' undeclared (first use in this function) pam_rhosts_auth.c:593: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once pam_rhosts_auth.c:593: error: for each function it appears in.) make[4]: *** [pam_rhosts_auth.lo] Error 1 as pbuf got otherwise removed from this file, this hunk should get removed as well (it seems the other MAXPATHLEN related hunks already got removed from 038_support_hurd) 4) modules/pam_xauth/pam_xauth.c needs porting: gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -I../../libpam/include -I../../libpamc/include -g -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_REENTRANT -fPIC -O2 -MT pam_xauth.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/pam_xauth.Tpo -c pam_xauth.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/pam_xauth.o pam_xauth.c:38:23: error: sys/fsuid.h: No such file or directory pam_xauth.c: In function 'check_acl': pam_xauth.c:203: error: 'PATH_MAX' undeclared (first use in this function) pam_xauth.c:203: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once pam_xauth.c:203: error: for each function it appears in.) make[4]: *** [pam_xauth.lo] Error 1 This doesn't look so bad, it can probably be easily fixed in a way acceptable to upstream. 5) After hacking around the above issues I got debian/tmp/usr/share/man/man5/namespace.conf.5: No such file or directory at /usr/bin/dh_installman line 120, <IN> line 333. which is pretty weird considering that this shouldn't be arch-specific at all. Maybe some bogus error from restarting dpkg-buildpackage too much. Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
