• Bug#1065215: xinetd: recent libc6-dev change causes the RPC support to

    From Aurelien Jarno@21:1/5 to All on Fri Mar 1 23:40:01 2024
    Source: xinetd
    Version: 1:2.3.15.4-1
    Severity: serious
    Tags: ftbfs
    Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past) User: debian-glibc@lists.debian.org
    Usertags: libtirpc-dev

    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 2.37-15.1i
    NMU, as part of the 64-bit time_t transition. This causes the RPC
    support of xinetd to be dropped, I am not sure it is something to care
    about.

    Therefore please either:
    - Add libtirpc-dev as build dependency
    - Disable the RPC support explicitly using --with-rpc=no, so that this
    feature does not depend on the packages installed on the system.

    Regards
    Aurelien
