Hi.
While compiling pppd (from the ppp-2.3.4 package) on an RH5 system
running glibc2, things would stop and the compilers would spout a lot of
errors. I noticed that the ppp distribution makes use of the symbols
__u32 and __u8 (presumably to denote unsigned ints of 32 and 8 bits
respectively).
It seems my C library doesn't define these but alternatively understand
u_int32_t and u_int8_t. My question is: which is which? I mean, which
(if any) should be the proper one? Is any of these defined in a
standard?
Replacing all occurences of __u32 and __u8 with u_int32_t and u_int8_t,
respectively, solved things and allowed me to compile the utilities.
What's the "proper" solution?
