Package: kdenetwork
Version: 1.1.2 cvs

1.) In the package kdenetwork the application kmail fails to compile
since the the flock() function is not available, although configure
defines HAVE_FLOCK in config.h.

The problem is that the name of the function flock collides
with a structure of name flock. Here is some excerpt of the
sys/file.h header file where flock() is defined which describes
the problem and also the necessary workaround (#define _BSD_COMPAT)
on IRIX:

#if !defined(__cplusplus) || defined(_BSD_COMPAT)
/*
 * In C++, struct flock from <sys/fcntl.h> collides with flock(3B)'s name.
 * Require C++ users to define _BSD_COMPAT to get the flock prototype.
 */
extern int flock(int, int);
#endif /* !__cplusplus || _BSD_COMPAT */

suggested fix is

#ifdef __sgi__
#define _BSD_COMPAT
#endif

before the inclusion of sys/file.h in kmfolder.cpp

2.) ktalkd makes use of the function snprintf() which is not available
on IRIX 6.x platforms. Please include the source of the function
snprintf() (e.g. taken from the glibc-sources) and link it
on those platforms or eliminate the use of snprintf() completely.

Best regards,
Mathias
