Hi Steve-
I think libtirpc-devel installs the tirpc headers in the wrong
place. The #include directives in the headers themselves expect them
to appear under /usr/include, not under /usr/include/tirpc, so my
builds fail when trying to include these headers.
For example, /usr/include/tirpc/rpc/rpcb_clnt.h does a "#include <rpc/
rpcb_prot.h>" -- and the build chokes because that header is actually
in /usr/include/tirpc/rpc/rpcb_prot.h.
Now, I can probably fix this temporarily by adding "-I /usr/include/
tirpc" to my build. However:
1. On Solaris, these all appear under /usr/include, there is no /usr/
include/tirpc.
2. libtirpc-devel installs a bunch of files that already exist, such
as /usr/include/rpc/auth.h, in /usr/include/tirpc/rpc/auth.h.
It would be cleaner to have one place for nfs-utils to look for these
headers, so I don't want to permanently add "-I /usr/include/tirpc"
or autoconf magic to find the right path unless we decide /usr/
include/tirpc is the final location for these files.
So I think applications in general will expect to find these under /
usr/include, not under /usr/include/tirpc.
Comments?
