Package: e2fslibs-dev Version: 1.40.8-2 Severity: important If a program using ext2fs public headers want to use some functions or features that are #ifdef'ed within conditionals that are defined at e2fsprogs build time, they just can't. Similarly, it would need to include sys/types.h itself to circumvent the lack of HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H.
It's particularly a problem for WORDS_BIGENDIAN, because byte swapping macros won't do the right thing on big endians without defining WORDS_BIGENDIAN. There should be a config.h file, included in the headers, that set all these variables that are defined at build time but are required by headers. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages e2fslibs-dev depends on: ii comerr-dev 2.1-1.40.8-2 common error description library - ii e2fslibs 1.40.8-2 ext2 filesystem libraries ii libc6-dev [libc-dev] 2.7-11 GNU C Library: Development Librari e2fslibs-dev recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
