Description Felix Janda 2015-03-29 07:52:14 UTC

Since version 4.9 strace uses an internal libaio.h header and therefore
does not depend on libaio anymore.


Reproducible: Always

i don't know what you mean.  the tarball doesn't include libaio.h and the code def still checks for it.  please point to a git commit in the upstream repo that changes this behavior.

Comment 3 Felix Janda 2015-04-03 12:06:03 UTC

strace-4.9 indeed does not require external libaio.h (2013-11-11 Denys Vlasenko).

However as I now noticed it is again required for strace-4.10.

So this report is indeed invalid. Sorry for the spam.

(In reply to Felix Janda from comment #3)

thanks for the clarification -- i was only looking at the latest.  didn't actually check 4.9.
