Description Ben Taylor 2008-12-08 13:38:12 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
Compiler:          Sun Studio 12 Solaris 10, x64
OS:                Solaris
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

kppp does a linktest for sethostname, which passes because sethostname is in Solaris 10's libc, but is not declared in 
/usr/include/unistd.h, as it is on Solaris Express (aka
SXCE and Nevada).  When opener.cpp is compiled, it fails because
there is no declaration for sethostname.

I tested a crude patch that declared sethostname as it is 
defined in opener.cpp in opener.h using a SOLARIS10 define
that we have in our build environment.  It built correctly.
