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.
