Bug 361541 – sys-apps/busybox-1.8.13 fails to compile on a x86 uclibc box

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Adeel 2011-04-01 01:39:48 UTC]

This is exactly the same issue as discussed in http://bugs.gentoo.org/335947 . Seems like the upstream patch wasn't introduced in the 1.18.3 release; the fix is the same, but the line numbers differ.


here's the updated patch:

busybox-1.19.4-date_nano.patch

I have created a patched ebuild of sys-apps/busybox-1.19.4 which fixes this -
can be found in overlay:
https://gitorious.org/abraxas-gentoo-overlay/abraxas-gentoo-overlay

Patch is also attatched, please note that changing statbuf.st_mtim.tv_nsec to st_mtimensec without checks will break glibc.

latest uclibc + busybox seem to build fine together
