Description Brian De Wolf 2012-01-19 23:54:02 UTC
Radiusclient fails authentication on amd64 when using valid credentials.  See:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=321229

Please incorporate the patch into the ebuild so that radius checks that use libradiusclient (for example, check_radius from nagios-plugins) will work properly on amd64.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build radiusclient.
2. Attempt authentication with valid credentials.
3. Be puzzled by authentication failures.

+  +radiusclient-0.3.2-r1.ebuild, +files/radiusclient-0.3.2-64bit-compat.patch:
+  Revision bump: EAPI 5, autotools-utils eclass, install static libraries
+  conditionally, add patch for amd64 compatibility, wrt bug #399433

Thanks, Brian, and sorry for delay. Tested on amd64 host - works perfect with patch, authentication failures without it.

However, it seems that other 64 bit arches can be affected, so i am CCing them.

@ia64, @ppc64, @mips teams - please test and report. Thanks in advance

The patch only affects x86_64 by the looks of it. The code for the rest of the arches remains intact. Lets close this bug
