Valgrind 2.1.0 doesn't compile on Fedora Core 1 because of this bug. +1 Chronyd also doesn't compile on FC1 because of this bug... Why is this bug still open? Thats 2 months for a typo in a header file. (missing '/' for the comment field) While the fix is trivial, I'm surprised no one has squashed this. This was originally in glibc-kernheaders-2.4-8.36 (arjan) That package is now know as glibc-headers-2.3.2-101.4 (jakub) Please reassign to Jakub. (jakub) Cheers Phil (aka Bryce) =--= *** Bug 110085 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This seems to be fixed in glibc-kernheaders-2.4-8.43 (Raw Hide). > This was originally in glibc-kernheaders-2.4-8.36 (arjan)

This is not so clear to me. Could you clarify ?
The incorrect file is /usr/include/linux/timex.h and belongs to
glibc-kernheaders:
$ rpm -qf /usr/include/linux/timex.h
glibc-kernheaders-2.4-8.36
There is another timex.h file in /usr/include/sys that belongs to
glibc-headers:
# rpm -qf /usr/include/sys/timex.h
glibc-headers-2.3.2-101.4
but these are very different files, and there is noyhing wrong with
the latter.
Moreover, glibc-kernheaders are needed by glibc-headers.
$ rpm -e --test glibc-kernheaders
error: Failed dependencies:
kernel-headers is needed by (installed)
glibc-headers-2.3.2-101.4
kernel-headers >= 2.2.1 is needed by (installed)
glibc-headers-2.3.2-101.4

Fixes missing start of comment line
[Argh, forgot to add my comment, sorry.] Well, this is getting really old. Time to patch it and spin an update glibc-kernheaders package I think. Thanks for the bug report. This bug doesn't seem to be present any more in current versions. |
