Comment 1 Justin Lecher (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-06-21 09:41:40 UTC
Should work with all versions of stable glibc-2.14 in the tree
Comment 2 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2012-06-23 22:24:13 UTC
it's still broken.  it needs to be converted to libtirpc, not use the symbols that come from glibc.
Comment 3 Toralf Förster gentoo-dev 2015-08-06 11:27:15 UTC
tree cleaner ?

Comment 8 Gil Kloepfer 2016-03-08 21:28:14 UTC
Created attachment 427780 [details, diff]
Proposed patch to this ebuild

Attached is a patch to this ebuild that implements the fix proposed by Michael O. Distler that worked for him, and it also worked for me as well.  Hopefully this will help move the fix to this ebuild along.

There is some discussion about this problem on the 'net with regard to whether _LIBC being defined or not causing IS_IN (part of /usr/include/bits/libc-lock.h from glibc) to be defined or not (this is what causes the compile to fail).  It seems, though, that yp-tools:src/ypclnt.c does not appear to need to include bits/libc-lock.h.  So rather than wait for whatever is appropriate with libc to get resolved, this is likely the proper fix for the ebuild anyway.
Comment 9 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2016-03-12 09:42:30 UTC
Thanks

Are you willing to proxy maintain this package? 
http://www.linux-nis.org/download/yp-tools/

It seems that we are shipping a really old version because of this being orphaned :(
http://www.linux-nis.org/download/yp-tools/
Comment 10 Gil Kloepfer 2016-05-10 01:16:36 UTC
I've never done any package maintenance in an official capacity for Gentoo, but am willing to try.

It seems RedHat 7 is using yp-tools 2.14 (latest in the 2.x train), and that version ported nicely from the source at www.linux-nis.org to Gentoo, and also fixes the problem reported in this bug.

I did try going to 4.2 (latest) a few weeks ago, but that had some issues (I can't remember the exact ones, since I got pulled away from it due to some urgent issues at work).  I'm not sure if going to 4.x is actually necessary, though.

I would be happy to contribute my ebuild of 2.14 and be the (proxy) maintainer of this package.  I will need to read-over all the responsibilities first to make sure I'm not trying to take-on more than I can handle.  We do use NIS extensively where I work, and my primary system is running Gentoo, so anything I submit will get pretty thoroughly tested.

I suggest you read over https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Proxy_Maintainers
and consider joining the IRC channel cited within that link.

Any news on this? :/

I solved this for myself by bumping the version to 2.14.  Just clone the ebuild into a local repository, rename it to -2.14.ebuild, and change the SRC_URI to http://www.linux-nis.org/download/yp-tools/yp-tools-2.14.tar.bz2.

I haven't tested the result, but it seems like the correct solution is to take the upstream update instead of patching the old version.
