tried to install previous ebuilds like irssi-0.8.10_rc5.ebuild and irssi-0.8.9-r1.ebuild, but this produced the same error.

# qpkg -f /usr/include/netdb.h
sys-libs/glibc *
# qpkg -f /usr/include/socks.h
net-misc/dante *

currently installed:
dante-1.1.15-r1
glibc-2.3.4.20050125

maybe these versions are conflicting?

[Comment 2 Sven Wegener 2005-02-28 02:54:21 UTC]

It's USE="socks5" that seems to mess things up. I'll take a look later today.

[Comment 3 Michael Zeidler 2005-02-28 04:04:27 UTC]

hi sven,

its true: 'use="-socks5" emerge irssi' compiles wihtout any problems now. How you figured this out?

[Comment 4 Sven Wegener 2005-02-28 04:30:55 UTC]

Two things in this line:

> /usr/include/socks.h:113: error: previous declaration of `Rgetaddrinfo'

It mentions socks.h and Rgetaddrinfo. socks.h is used for aliasing the normal
network functions to functions that perform transparent socks-wrapping.
Rgetaddrinfo is the socks-version of getaddrinfo. And a look at your USE line
from emerge --info showed that you've got the socks5 USE flag activated. And
the irssi ebuild has optional socks5 support.

[Comment 5 Sven Wegener 2005-02-28 15:44:41 UTC]

I added a patch to net-irc/irssi-0.8.10_rc5-r1 that should fix this error. Please
give it a test.
