Description Tiziano Müller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-07-26 15:19:53 UTC
I get the following while compiling:

dns.cpp:138:3: warning: #warning "getHostByAddr will use default system timeout because bind library was not found on the system "
dns.cpp:260:3: warning: #warning "No gethostbyaddr_r(); all DNS calls will be serialized (slow!)"
dns.cpp:345:3: warning: #warning "No gethostbyname_r() all DNS calls will be serialized (slow!)"

Checking configure.in it seems that we should add "--with-advanced-dns=dns" to use libresolv (which is provided by glibc).

And further: what would be the benefit of using stlport? If it works, why not add another stlport USE flag?

Hummm... after making some tests I discovered that libfwbuilder doesn't compile on amd64 with --with-advanced-dns set because it makes some weird linking that it's not correct to do (http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2005-December/msg00800.html). This being said, I won't add support to this unless upstream fixes the mess.
