Bug 7774 – mysql ebuild fails with tcpwrappers

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Jay Christopherson 2002-09-10 18:15:20 UTC]

An attempt to emerge mysql with default options resulted in this:

usr/include/tcpd.h: In function `void* handle_connections_sockets(void*)':
/usr/include/tcpd.h:135: too many arguments to function `void sock_host()'
mysqld.cc:2428: at this point in file
/usr/include/tcpd.h:73: too many arguments to function `int hosts_access()'
mysqld.cc:2429: at this point in file
/usr/include/tcpd.h:128: too many arguments to function `char* eval_client()'

!!! ERROR: The ebuild did not complete successfully.
!!! Function src_compile, Line -96, Exitcode 2
!!! compile problem

To workaround and successfully emerge mysql, I had to USE="-tcpd"...

same error here, same workaround works for me[tm].

no longer an issue.
