Description Malcolm Lashley 2012-04-29 14:56:07 UTC

Changes to number of args in rtnl_dump_filter() cause compilation failure - the patch at http://cvs.pld-linux.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/cvs/packages/collectd/collectd-netlink.patch?revision=1.1&view=co

fixes compilation. I *think* iproute2-3.3.0 introduces this, but I haven't checked in detail - emerge log seems to point to 5.0.* building just fine with iproute2-3.1.0




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge app/admin-collectd
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Build fails with
netlink.c: In function 'ir_read':
netlink.c:574:2: error: too many arguments to function 'rtnl_dump_filter'
/usr/include/libnetlink.h:40:12: note: declared here
netlink.c:612:6: error: too many arguments to function 'rtnl_dump_filter'
/usr/include/libnetlink.h:40:12: note: declared here

Fixed in collectd-5.1.0-r1

Unfortunately the patch breaks compilation with older versions of iproute2, so I've raised dependencies there.
