This is standard practice. If you find any FreeBSD manual pages in which the SYNOPSIS shows the inclusion of <sys/*> _after_ the inclusion of other headers, please report such documentation bugs in a new PR. You should contact the maintainers of the code that's breaking for you and get them to order their inclusions correctly. I'd close your problem report, but can't access the database at the moment. Hopefully someone else will do the honours. Ciao, Sheldon. State Changed From-To: open->closed Bug in 3rd-party source, see follow-up for details. |
There is a definition in /usr/include/netinet/in.h, $FreeBSD: src/sys/netinet/in.h,v 1.38.2.3 1999/08/29 16:29:34 peter Exp $, line 223: struct in_addr { u_int32_t s_addr; }; <netinet/in.h> does not define u_int32_t. It does not include <sys/types.h> or something else that defines u_int32_t. Therefore, if a C-program includes <netinet/in.h> and <sys/types.h> AFTER, it fails to compile. I discovered it compiling Perl module TacacsPlus-0.16 fetched from CPAN. Fix: Here is a patch: How-To-Repeat: Download http://www.perl.com/CPAN-local/authors/id/MSHOYHER/TacacsPlus-0.16.tar.gz tar xfvz TacacsPlus-0.16.tar.gz perl Makefile.PL make Here you will have parse error in /usr/include/netinet/in.h
