Description of problem:

I try to build a libvirt package for the IPFire project (http://www.ipfire.org/).
Without sasl libvirt build fine but with sasl libvirt fails to build with the following message:

CC       rpc/libvirt_net_rpc_la-virnetsaslcontext.lo
In file included from rpc/virnetsaslcontext.h:25,
                 from rpc/virnetsaslcontext.c:26:
/usr/include/sasl/sasl.h:230: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before 'size_t'
Makefile:7023: recipe for target 'rpc/libvirt_net_rpc_la-virnetsaslcontext.lo' failed
make[3]: *** [rpc/libvirt_net_rpc_la-virnetsaslcontext.lo] Error 1

make[1]: Leaving directory '/libvirt-1.2.20'
Makefile:1896: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.2.20


How reproducible:
Build libvirt with:
1. ./configure --prefix=/usr --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc --with-openssl --with-sasl --without-uml --without-vbox --without-lxc --without-esx --without-vmware --without-openvz --without-firewalld --without-storage-scsi --without-storage-mpath --without-avahi --with-test-suite -without-dbus --without-storage-lvm --without-pm-utils

2. make

3. the error occurs


Additional info:

Cyrus sasl (2.1.26) is build with 
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
		            --with-dbpath=/var/lib/sasl/sasldb2 \
		            --with-saslauthd=/var/run/saslauthd \
		            --with-des=no --with-rc4=no

I attached the whole terminal output.

Sincerely Jonatan Schlag

PS.: Sorry for my bad english, i hope you could understand me.

Hmm it's working here. Can you still reproduce with libvirt.git?
Comment 2 Jonatan Schlag 2016-04-04 13:55:09 UTC 
Hi,
thank your for your response and sorry for my late response.
Tomorrow I will try to reproduce this bug with libvirt.git

This could be fixed by:

    build: workaround broken SASL header (again)
    
    Compilation for xdg-app failed due to a buggy SASL headers present on
    the used runtime (org.gnome.Sdk 3.18).
    
    In file included from rpc/virnetsaslcontext.h:24:0,
                     from rpc/virnetsaslcontext.c:25:
    /usr/include/sasl/sasl.h:230:38: error: unknown type name 'size_t'
     typedef void *sasl_realloc_t(void *, size_t);
                                          ^
    /usr/include/sasl/sasl.h:235:5: error: unknown type name 'sasl_realloc_t'
         sasl_realloc_t *,
    
    Use the same workaround as commit 1be3dfd did.

Comment 4 Jonatan Schlag 2016-04-08 16:38:49 UTC 
Hi,
I tested it today with libvirt version 1.3.3 and libvirt build now with sasl enabled. 
I will test the binaries tomorrow evening but if libvirt build everything should ok so far I think.

Thank you all for your help. 

Regards Jonatan

thanks for reporting, closing. if you hit issues with the binaries please file a separate bug since it's likely a different issue
