Package: iproute2
Version: 6.7.0-2
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
User: debian-glibc@lists.debian.org
Usertags: libtirpc-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, which depends on libtirpc-dev, has been added
to the libc6-dev package.

The libnsl-dev dependency has been temporarily dropped in the 2.37-15.1
NMU, as part of the 64-bit time_t transition. This causes the RPC
support in iproute2 (from misc/ss.c) to be dropped, I am not sure it is
something to care about.

Therefore please either:
- Add libtirpc-dev as build dependency
- Disable the RPC support explicitly using --without-rpc so that this
  feature does not depend on the packages installed on the system.

Regards
Aurelien
