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 gcl to disable
the XDR support. Not fully sure what are the consequences, but it seems
at least axiom requires XDR support.
Therefore please either:
- Add libnsl-dev as build dependency
- Disable XDR support explicitly with --disable-xdr so that this feature
does not depend on the packages installed on the system.
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.
Regards
Aurelien
