%general-entities; ]> $LastChangedBy$ $Date$ libtirpc The libtirpc package contains libraries that support programs that use the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) API. It replaces the RPC, but not the NIS library entries that used to be in glibc. &lfs70_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &libtirpc-md5sum; Download size: &libtirpc-size; Estimated disk space required: &libtirpc-buildsize; Estimated build time: &libtirpc-time; Additional Downloads Required header tar file (Add rpc/nis headers): Required Patch (Remove nis dependencies): libtirpc Dependencies Required Optional libgssapi User Notes: Glibc-2.14 and later do not install NIS and RPC related headers by default. If needed, install them here: if [ ! -r /usr/include/rpc/rpc.h ]; then tar -xvf ../rpcnis-headers.tar.bz2 -C /usr/include fi Install libtirpc by running the following commands: patch -Np1 -i ../libtirpc-&libtirpc-version;-remove-nis-2.patch && autoreconf && ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/lib && make This package does not come with a test suite. Now, as the root user: make pkgconfigdir=/usr/lib/pkgconfig install && mv -v /lib/libtirpc.*a /usr/lib patch -Np1 -i ../libtirpc-&libtirpc-version;-remove-nis-2.patch: This patch removes references to nis functions no longer in glibc. --libdir=/lib: Since this library may be used before /usr is mounted, place the library in /lib. pkgconfigdir=/usr/lib/pkgconfig: Ensure the .pc file is placed in the proper location. mv -v /lib/libtirpc.*a: Static libraries and .la files belong in /usr/lib.
