Package: ssmtp
Version: 2.62
When building ssmtp on Solaris 10 using the Studio 12 compiler suite, the
build fails with the error that strndup is an undefined symbol. Upon further
investigation, I have seen that strndup is not part of strings.h on Solaris
10, and appears to be available only in the Linux strings.h header. A build
history is attached.
I have been previously using ssmtp 2.48 which built and works well on Solaris
10. This version uses the strdup function, not the strndup function.
I suggest that for compatibility across multiple platforms, the call to
strndup be replaced with a call to the strncpy function. This will slightly
complicate the code, however it will achieve better platform independence.
