Bug 16767 – MySQL 3.23.55 *still* fails to compile ("errno")

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Christian Rubbert 2003-03-03 15:50:39 UTC]

Well I'm sorry to repost, but have you verified the fix from #16480? 
  
The compiler call in question is a g++ one, so you have to add  
-DHAVE_ERRNO_AS_DEFINE=1 to CXXFLAGS. I tried adding it only to  
CXXFLAGS, but found out that you have to add it to CFLAGS as well.  
  
So here's the actual fix:  
+	#glibc-2.3.2_pre fix; bug #16496  
+	export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -DHAVE_ERRNO_AS_DEFINE=1"  
+	export CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -DHAVE_ERRNO_AS_DEFINE=1"

yup, you're right.  learned this after adding the first fix ;-)

will fix it again shortly.

How to do this when standing at the prompt?

I'm getting an error trying to compile it too:

For a quick fix, edit /usr/portage/devel-db/mysql/mysql-3.23.55.ebuild, search the line 

export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -DHAVE_ERRNO_AS_DEFINE=1"

and directly beneath it add

export CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -DHAVE_ERRNO_AS_DEFINE=1"

So that it looks like

export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -DHAVE_ERRNO_AS_DEFINE=1"
export CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -DHAVE_ERRNO_AS_DEFINE=1"

DO NOT RSYNC! Changes will be lost then.
Instead, just emerge mysql :)

I'll fix this today, with some other cleanups as well ;-)

[Comment 8 Bjarke Istrup Pedersen (RETIRED) 2003-03-09 11:57:54 UTC]

Well, the problem is not mysql, it is the new glibc that has changed.
Try and search for glibc in the bug database, you will find several topics about it.

sorry about that i ensured its fixed properly now.
