Not lacking getpwuid():
[phh1@biou2 BLD]$ grep HAVE_GETPWUID */include/*_config.h
opal/include/opal_config.h:#define HAVE_GETPWUID 1
I also can't see why the quoted code could fail.
The following is working fine:
[phh1@biou2 BLD]$ cat q.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <pwd.h>
int main(void) {
uid_t uid = getuid();
printf("uid = %d\n", (int)uid);
struct passwd *p = getpwuid(uid);
if (p) printf("name = %s\n", p->pw_name);
return 0;
}
[phh1@biou2 BLD]$ gcc -std=c99 q.c && ./a.out
uid = 44154
name = phh1
HOWEVER, building for ILP32 target (as in the reported failure) fails:
[phh1@biou2 BLD]$ gcc -m32 -std=c99 q.c && ./a.out
uid = 44154
So, I am going to guess that this *is* a system misconfiguration (maybe
missing the 32-bit foo.so for the appropriate nsswitch resolver?) just as
the error message said.
Sorry for the false alarm,
-Paul
