Hello list,

The warning in the subject has turned into an error.

I'm building a Yocto project based on poky-dunfell-23.0.2

I get this error:
ERROR: dpkg-native-1.19.7-r0 do_compile: oe_runmake failed

| ../../../dpkg-1.19.7/lib/compat/strsignal.c: In function ‘test_strsignal’:
| ../../../dpkg-1.19.7/lib/compat/strsignal.c:71:10: error: ‘sys_siglist’ undeclared (first use in this function)
|    71 |   return sys_siglist[s];

I found the reason for this error:
Release notes of glibc 2.32:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-announce/2020/000029.html

* The deprecated arrays *sys_siglist*, _sys_siglist, and sys_sigabbrev
  are no longer available to newly linked binaries, and their declarations
  have been *removed* from <string.h>.  They are exported solely as
  compatibility symbols to support old binaries.  All programs should use
  strsignal instead.


To solve it I could downgrade the glibc library version of my system (general consensus on forums is that, that is a bad idea).
Other option:
In the master branch I find a recipe for dpkg 1.20.5, can I simply upgrade the dpkg version (1.19.7) in the dunfell release with the master branch version (1.20.5)? Could it break anything and how do I know it will solve my problem? Other then try it.
Or is there another solution?

uname -rmo
Linux 5.4.64-1-MANJARO  x86_64 GNU/Linux

Thanks,
Robert.
