Package: qdbm

Severity: important
Tags: patch
User: debian-hurd@lists.debian.org
Usertags: hurd

Hi,

currently[1], qdbm fails to build on GNU/Hurd.

The problem is due to the fact that the msync() POSIX function is not
implemented on Hurd yet, thus returns -1 and sets ENOSYS as errno.
On the other hand, even without it qdbm seems to work fine on Hurd,
and the various tests succeed with the attached patch (which ignores
msync() failures when errno is ENOSYS).
I'm not sure whether the patch could be suitable for upstream though,
although it can work for the Debian packaging (and it won't need any
change when msync() is implemented).

Thanks,

I'm unsure about other architectures/kernels which doesn't comply
POSIX specification for msync().
Anyway, I will apply this because on GNU/Linux and kFreeBSD qdbm
seems to be built successfully (tested on amd64).

Upstream development has been dead for long time, and at least
this modification fix issues only for debian (hurd distributor).
So, I will treat this as debian specific patch.

Hi,

Unfortunately gnumach (the current microkernel of Hurd) does not 
implement a vm_msync() RPC, so the msync() glibc function basically gets 
an ENOSYS as result of the failing RPC call. Theorically it's something 
that should be implemented, but it isn't the only thing that needs such 
in Hurd, unfortunately...
Anyway, I'm attaching now a slightly different version of the patch (why 
didn't I think about it earlier...) which instead makes the errno check 
conditional on GNU/HUrd only, so there should be no behaviour change for 
any other OS. (Successfully tested on linux-amd64 and hurd-i386.)
