Description David Walser 2013-10-10 05:19:21 CEST

As you can see from this build log:
http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/autobuild/cauldron/x86_64/core/2013-09-29/strace-4.8-1.mga4.src.rpm/build.0.20130929125928.log

struct ptrace_peeksiginfo_args from /usr/include/sys/ptrace.h (glibc-devel) is redefinied in /usr/include/linux/ptrace.h (kernel-userspace-headers), which causes gcc to complain and the build to fail.

As a side note, I located some of the headers strace looks for in configure in libaio-devel, sctp-devel, and acl-devel.  Should we add those as BuildRequires?

Reproducible:

Dan Fandich has added a patch to workaround this in strace-4.8-2.mga4 to get it to build, but it still looks like something that ideally should be fixed in either glibc or the kernel.

Strace 4.9 has been released to work around this.  I guess upstream kernel/glibc won't fix it.
