Hello everybody,

I am using Yocto version 1.8 and I'm having trouble compiling curl on a 64-bit machine running Debian Wheezy 7.10.

The recipe always creates a libcurl.so.5 library, which I understand is due to an error regarding the size of off_t picked up by autotools. From the recipe:

# see https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/poky/2013-December/009435.html # We should ideally drop ac_cv_sizeof_off_t from site files but until then EXTRA_OECONF += "${@bb.utils.contains('DISTRO_FEATURES', 'largefile', 'ac_cv_sizeof_off_t=8', '', d)}"
As far as I understand bitbake this last line should add the string 'ac_cv_sizeoff_off_t=8' to EXTRA_OECONF, if 'largefile' is set in DISTRO_FEATURES. When I checked the DISTRO_FEATURES variable with "bitbake -e curl", 'largefile' was indeed set.
DISTRO_FEATURES="alsa argp bluetooth ext2 irda largefile pcmcia usbgadget usbhost wifi xattr nfs zeroconf pci 3g nfc x11 ipv4 ipv6 libc-backtrace libc-big-macros libc-bsd libc-cxx-tests libc-catgets libc-charsets libc-crypt libc-crypt-ufc libc-db-aliases libc-envz libc-fcvt libc-fmtmsg libc-fstab libc-ftraverse libc-getlogin libc-idn libc-inet-anl libc-libm libc-locales libc-locale-code libc-memusage libc-nis libc-nsswitch libc-rcmd libc-rtld-debug libc-spawn libc-streams libc-sunrpc libc-utmp libc-utmpx libc-wordexp libc-posix-clang-wchar libc-posix-regexp libc-posix-regexp-glibc libc-posix-wchar-io largefile multiarch tiny pam keyboard usbhost ext2 ipv6 pcmcia pulseaudio sysvinit"

However the configure log shows that configure is called without 'ac_cv_sizeoff_off_t=8':

...
configure: WARNING: This libcurl built is probably not ABI compatible with previous configure: WARNING: builds! You MUST read lib/README.curl_off_t to figure it out.

When I try to compile this recipe with the exact same settings on a test-machine running Ubuntu 14.04 everything works fine, configure is called with 'ac_cv_sizeoff_off_t=8', no ABI issues are detected and libcurl.so.4 is produced.

Could somebody give me a hint, how I can fix this?

Best regards,
Christian
