While emerging ntp-4.2.0-r2 it fails consistently with this error: In file included from ../include/ntp_md5.h:6, from md5c.c:28: /usr/include/md5.h:37: error: syntax error before "caddr_t" make[2]: *** [md5c.o] Error 1 This has happened on several different systems, both Intel and AMD, and on usermode kernel systems. It appears to be a problem in the source files. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge net-misc/ntp-4.2.0-r2 2.Fails as shown above. 3.Try changing USE flags and try again, but same results. Actual Results: Emerge fails as previously stated. Expected Results: Update of ntp should succeed. I have not tried unmerging ntp-4.1.2 before emergeing ntp-4.2.0-r2.
Can you please post the output of emerge info? Hysteric
related to a previous ntp bug: http://mailman.ntp.org/pipermail/bugs/2004-February/000939.html Might help the devs in fixing the problem. Looks like a missing header file.
I'll have a patch and test ebuild up if this test proves successful.
Created attachment 30404 [details, diff] NTP md5 header fix patch
Created attachment 30405 [details] Modified ebuild to apply the patch
NTP md5 header fix patch should go: /usr/portage/net-misc/ntp/files and Modified ebuild to apply the patch should go: /usr/portage/net-misc/ntp Let me know if it works :)
`emerge info` ? what linux-headers are you using ?
get back to me
no info, never seen/heard this bug before on a Gentoo system
I'll help you out since I'm having the exact problem on one of my machines.

what package is providing /usr/include/md5.h ?
How can I find out?
`find /var/db/pkg -name CONTENTS | xargs grep -l md5.h`
There were quite a few hits so I modified the string. Seems that cyrus-sasl provides the /ust/include/md5.h # othello pkg # find /var/db/pkg -name CONTENTS | xargs grep -l '/usr/include/md5.h' /var/db/pkg/dev-libs/cyrus-sasl-1.5.27-r4/CONTENTS
