#357482 — Bug#1065107: exim4: FTBFS: missing build-dep on libnsl-dev

Source: exim4
Version: 4.97-1
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
User: debian-glibc@lists.debian.org
Usertags: libnsl-dev

Dear maintainer,

Starting with glibc 2.31, support for NIS (libnsl library) has been
moved to a separate libnsl2 package. In order to allow a smooth
transition, a libnsl-dev has been added to the libc6-dev package.

This dependency has been temporarily dropped in the 2.37-15.1 NMU, as
part of the 64-bit time_t transition. This causes exim4 to FTBFS in sid
with:

| cc buildconfig.c
| cc -g -O2 -ffile-prefix-map=/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>=. -fstack-protector-strong -fstack-clash-protection -Wformat -Werror=format-security -fcf-protection  -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -Wdate-time -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fvisibility=hidden  -o buildconfig buildconfig.c -lcrypt -lm -lnsl

|   117 | int test_int_t = 0;
|       |     ^~~~~~~~~~

| make: *** [debian/rules:324: build] Error 2
| dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build subprocess returned exit status 2

This could be fixed by adding an explicit Build-Depends on libnsl-dev.
The glibc change will likely be reverted in the short term, but given
its a change we want to do for Trixie, this will only lower the severity
of the bug.

Thanks, noted. I cannot fix it now though since sid seems to be broken
due to t64 with regards to pam, there is back and forth of package
renames and util-linux 2.39.3-6.1 pre-depends on both libpam0g and
libpam0t64.
