Severity: important
Tags: patch
Hi.
Please find attached a tiny patch, which fixes a rather strange (IMHO)
behaviour in lib/chdir-long.c:
- an error is issued, telling the world that this file has not to be
compiled, when PATH_MAX is not defined;
instead of:
- putting (that part of) the file between #ifdef/#endif
which is done once this (dbs) patch is applied.
I also checked that the package still builds on (linux-)i386.
Cheers,
