Bug 42784 – when emerging samba rpctorture does not correctly build

• Status: VERIFIED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description postmodern 2004-02-24 11:38:30 UTC]

When emerging the samba package the sub program rpctorture does not correctly build. This does not crash the emerge but just omites the program from the emerge.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge samba
2. watch for error message marked with yellow *

Actual Results:  
the error message...
---
torture/rpctorture.c: In function `main':
torture/rpctorture.c:233: error: storage size of `cli_info' isn't known
torture/rpctorture.c:373: error: `scope' undeclared (first use in this function)
torture/rpctorture.c:373: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
torture/rpctorture.c:373: error: for each function it appears in.)
torture/rpctorture.c:531: warning: passing arg 5 of `create_procs' from

torture/rpctorture.c:535: warning: passing arg 5 of `create_procs' from
incompatible pointer type
make: *** [torture/rpctorture.o] Error 1
 * rpctorture didnt build
---
is printed.

Expected Results:  
properly build rpctorture and not print the error message.

Yeah, I know.  I wrote the ebuild.

I used yellow because it is not very important.

Why are you reporting this as a bug on bugs.gentoo.org?

This is not our bug.

Bye.

what he's trying to say is please bug the samba team about the program not compiling correctly ... it's been like this for some time

Now reported to the Samba team via their Bugzilla. Their ref #2163.

[Comment 5 Barry Salter 2004-12-16 17:01:31 UTC]

Just for completeness, the response received from Volker Lendecke (one of the Samba team) was:

-----BEGIN QUOTE-----

rpctorture is not supported in any way. If you need similar functionality look
at samba4 smbtorture.

-----END QUOTE-----

Any chance we can disable compiling of this then since I need to patch samba for
some things and cannot ebuild compile since it stops there ? 

Thanks :) 

[Comment 11 Henti Smith 2005-09-14 03:46:00 UTC]

Nevermind.. seems the compile is actually done and I can install and qmerge
afterwards :) 

[Comment 12 postmodern 2005-09-14 10:45:08 UTC]

net-fs/samba-3.0.14a-r2 still has a broken rpctorture and does not build or
install the rpctorture util.
