Hey, we had a report that netload plugin doesn't build anymore on BSD (in our case Debian GNU/kFreeBSD) Downstream bug is at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=621820 and build log at https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=xfce4-netload-plugin&arch=kfreebsd-amd64&ver=1.0.0-1&stamp=1299451646 End of the log says: make[2]: Entering directory `/build/buildd-xfce4-netload-plugin_1.0.0-1-kfreebsd-amd64-jI9y_t/xfce4-netload-plugin-1.0.0' Making all in panel-plugin make[3]: Entering directory `/build/buildd-xfce4-netload-plugin_1.0.0-1-kfreebsd-amd64-jI9y_t/xfce4-netload-plugin-1.0.0/panel-plugin' gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -DNDEBUG -DPACKAGE_LOCALE_DIR=\"/usr/share/locale\" -pthread -I/usr/include/xfce4/libxfce4panel-1.0 -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0 -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/xfce4 -I/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/include -I/usr/include/atk-1.0 -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/gio-unix-2.0/ -I/usr/include/pixman-1 -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng12 -I/usr/include/libdrm -pthread -I/usr/include/xfce4 -I/usr/include/gtk-2.0 -I/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/include -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/gio-unix-2.0/ -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/pixman-1 -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng12 -I/usr/include/libdrm -I/usr/include/atk-1.0 -g -O2 -fstack-protector --param ssp-buffer-size=4 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wformat -Wformat-security -Werror=format-security -c -o xfce4_netload_plugin-netload.o `test -f 'netload.c' || echo './'`netload.c In file included from net.h:25, from netload.c:26: os.h:125:28: error: net/ppp_defs.h: No such file or directory os.h:126:26: error: net/if_ppp.h: No such file or directory make[3]: *** [xfce4_netload_plugin-netload.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/build/buildd-xfce4-netload-plugin_1.0.0-1-kfreebsd-amd64-jI9y_t/xfce4-netload-plugin-1.0.0/panel-plugin' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/build/buildd-xfce4-netload-plugin_1.0.0-1-kfreebsd-amd64-jI9y_t/xfce4-netload-plugin-1.0.0' make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/build/buildd-xfce4-netload-plugin_1.0.0-1-kfreebsd-amd64-jI9y_t/xfce4-netload-plugin-1.0.0' make: *** [debian/stamp-makefile-build] Error 2
Any news? The build failure prevents it to migrate to Debian testing. We can ask for a removal on non Linux arches but it'd be nice to bring !Linux support back :)
According to http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=621820#37 if_ppp has been dropped from FreeBSD 8+ so it'll fail to build on that too. Apparently it'll need porting to new interface.
fixed in git http://git.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-netload-plugin/commit/?id=1d664b83161e5d22c98a576d45e0e4a4da439773
