Curious autobuild failure

Simon Horman · External Since: Dec 07, 2005 Posts: 120

Hi,

I'm pondering over the following build log

http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=heartbeat;ver=2.0.8-5;arch=ia64...amp=117

I think that the problem is caused by IPv6addr not being
built because linux/icmpv6.h is absent, which seems to
be confirmed in the output of configure.

However linux/icmpv6.h should be present in
linux-kernel-headers, which the log reports as being installed.

Toolchain package versions: [snip] linux-kernel-headers_=*=PROVIDED=*= [snip]

I'm not sure what =*=PROVIDED=*= means, but I am curious to know
if linux/icmpv6.h is present, and if so, why configure doesn't find it.

Any ideas?

hey Simon,
I can reproduce this on my sid workstation. icmpv6.h is installed and
provided by linux-libc-dev.

However, if I install linux-kernel-headers instead of linux-libc-dev
the build completes successfully.

Hi Dann,

thanks for looking into this. I'm not entirely sure why linux-libc-dev
isn't providing icmpv6.h correctly, but perhaps the best solution
for now is to add the follwing build dependancy

linux-kernel-headers [ia64]

linux-libc-dev | linux-kernel-headers already gets pulled in
by some other dependancy, libc6 I think. So the effect of
the new build dependancy should just be to force linux-kernel-headers on
ia64, right?

That will work for now, but aiui l-k-h is deprecated so we'll have to
deal with the l-l-d issue at some point.

Ok, that is a bit of a bother. I really wonder why icmpv6.h can't be
found in linux-libc-dev
