SAMBA 2.2.2 won't compile after install rs506a

[Gary Quiring]

I tried upgrading to 2.2.2 Samba but to my surprise would not compile. I have
compiled previous version of Samba on SCO 5.0.6 and never had a problem.

I have a SCO 5.0.6 with no patches installed and Samba 2.2.2 compiles fine. I
installed 506a and Samba won't compile.

I noticed the following message when running configure that does not normally
appear: WARNING: No automated network interface determination

make output:

The configure script fails to detect that initgroups is in fact declared
in /usr/include/grp.h, if you're using /bin/cc as your compiler.

If you fix that (I haven't tried to do so) you might stumble on similar
errors.

OTOH, using gcc, the configure&make cycle (on 5.0.6 patched with rs506a)
is perfect.

Hello JP,

I'm not clear on your fix. I use cc, and it compiles fine until rs506a
installed. What does 506a do that confuses the Samba configure script?

I didn't fix anything... I just changed compilers.
I have no idea what rs506a changed that causes the mistake reported by
the configure script. Perhpas John Terpstra can tell us.

Sorry, I misread your original post. Do you find the gcc compiler to be as
stable as cc? I have never used it.

I have not had any runtime issues from code compiled with gcc.

The 5.0.6a patch broke something with the cc compiler, a fix is
supposed to be coming. It looks like the problems is in changes to
libsocket.so.x and/or libresolv.so.x.
