Trying to build kdebase 3.2-alpha2 breaks with

Comment 1 Torsten Kasch 2003-09-28 18:32:00 UTC
Created attachment 2612 [details]
patch for kde-common/admin/acinclude.m4.in

The problematic code seems to be the following lines from "config.h":

--- snip ---
#if !defined(HAVE_GETDOMAINNAME_PROTO)
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C"
#endif
int getdomainname (char *, size_t);
#endif
--- snip ---

This check needs to #include <sys/types.h> (at least on Solaris) for "size_t"
to be defined for the compiler. So far I've found 2 solutions for this issue:

* remove the HAVE_GETDOMAINNAME_PROTO test completely since there's no
getdomainname() on Solaris (see bug 50754)

* apply the attached patch, works for me, but I'm not sure if it is the correct
way to do this (I'm sure, Stephan will tell me... ;-)
