Restore nis and rpc headers in glibc

[bdubbs@…]

There are several programs in BLFS that are broken due to glibc removing nis/rpc headers from the default install. We need to add:

mkdir /usr/include/rpc{,svc}
cp sunrpc/rpc/*.h /usr/include/rpc
cp sunrpc/rpcsvc/*.h /usr/include/rpcsvc
cp nis/rpcsvc/*.h /usr/include/rpcsvc

to the glibc instructions.

See ​http://linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/blfs-dev/2011-November/021354.html

Another option is to use the patches found by William: ​http://linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/blfs-support/2011-August/068617.html

I have put the headers into a tar file:

​ftp://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/other/rpcnis-headers.tar.bz2

They can be installed with:

sudo tar -xf rpcnis-headers.tar.bz2 -C /usr/include

With this, libtirpc configures and makes without complaint.
