Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
Dear maintainer,
Starting with glibc 2.31, support for NIS (libnsl library) has been
moved to a separate libnsl2 package. In order to allow a smooth
transition, a libnsl-dev, which depends on libtirpc-dev, has been added
to the libc6-dev package.
The libnsl-dev dependency has been temporarily dropped in the 2.37-15.1
NMU, as part of the 64-bit time_t transition. This causes ogdi-dfsg to
FTBFS in sid with:
| checking for string.h... yes
| checking for inttypes.h... yes
| checking for stdint.h... yes
| checking for strings.h... yes
| checking for sys/stat.h... yes
| checking for sys/types.h... yes
| checking for unistd.h... yes
| checking for rpc/rpc.h... no
| checking for libtirpc... no
| configure: error: Package requirements (libtirpc) were not met:
|
| Package 'libtirpc', required by 'virtual:world', not found
|
| Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
| installed software in a non-standard prefix.
|
| Alternatively, you may set the environment variables RPC_CFLAGS
| and RPC_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
| See the pkg-config man page for more details.
| tail -v -n \+0 config.log
This can be fixed by adding an explicit Build-Depends on libtirpc-dev.
The glibc change will likely be reverted in the short term, but given
its a change we want to do for Trixie, this will only lower the severity
of the bug.

Aurelien
