That's on purpose. res_mkquery is in i386 etc. libresolv.so only for compatibility reasons. For newer architectures (e.g. x86_64, s390x or powerpc64) such compatibility is not needed, therefore just __res_mkquery is provided. Ok. What is the proper fix for programs (or configure scripts) that require res_mkquery ? Replacing res_mkquery by __res_mkquery makes it work on 64bit, although I don't think I understand why that is required. Do you have a link to some more information about this (Google wasn't much of a help). Thanks in advance. If you #include <resolv.h>, res_mkquery will be __res_mkquery (it is a #define). Configure tests that test for res_mkquery etc. without #include <resolv.h> are just broken. |
