Package: linux-libc-dev Version: 2.6.29-2 Severity: wishlist (mass filing with linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev)
/usr/include/asm/stat.h: long __unused[3]; /usr/include/linux/icmp.h: __be16 __unused; /usr/include/linux/sysctl.h: unsigned long __unused[4]; These conflict with the traditional use of __unused by the BSDs, which predates use of __unused as identifier by Linux and glibc headers. For example, the Debian package libbsd-dev includes the following code: #ifndef __unused # ifdef __GNUC__ # define __unused __attribute__((unused)) # else # define __unused # endif #endif It however was ifdef’d out due to this problem. A personal package of mine, mirmake, fails to build on more recent Debian systems because it does _not_ ifdef it out, since otherwise, some BSD software cannot be compiled (without extra patches). Please file this bug with your respective upstreams *and* patch the header files in question yourselves, to bridge over the response time waiting for upstream to fix it.
