That's great. I spent quite a while last summer looking for the source of that error, without success. I finally just created a stub library named lutil figuring I would then find which function was missing on the next build attempt. But it worked fine so apparently QEMU does not even use whatever is in lutil, at least on Solaris.
I'm still offering to help maintain this as I have some actual Solaris hardware. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1777252 Title: tests/Makefile.include trying to add linking library '-lutil' that break the build on Solaris Status in QEMU: New Bug description: Building script 'tests/Makefile.include' contains following code ``` ifeq ($(CONFIG_POSIX),y) LIBS += -lutil endif ``` library -lutil is not available on Solaris, so the building will failed, like ``` ld: fatal: library -lutil: not found make: *** [SOMEWHERE/src/qemu-2.12.0/rules.mak:121: qemu-nbd] Error 1 ``` Commenting those code out fixed the error.
