I wanted to build the devel/libgetopt package on my Slackware Linux system (gcc version 3.3.6), but it failed:

.. devel/libgetopt # bmake
getopt_long.c: In function `getopt_internal':
getopt_long.c:204: error: `optreset' undeclared (first use in this function)
getopt_long.c:204: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
getopt_long.c:204: error: for each function it appears in.)
getopt_long.c: In function `getopt_long':
getopt_long.c:408: error: invalid use of undefined type `struct option'
getopt_long.c:408: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
getopt_long.c:410: error: invalid use of undefined type `struct option'
getopt_long.c:410: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
getopt_long.c:410: error: invalid use of undefined type `struct option'
getopt_long.c:410: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
getopt_long.c:410: error: invalid use of undefined type `struct option'
< ... cut here .... >
.. devel/libgetopt #

I modified the Makefile (CVS revision 1.24) in the devel/libgetopt directory as follows:


--- Makefile 4 Mar 2006 21:29:17 -0000 1.24

do-extract:


After 'bmake clean' the package was built without errors. Is there a better solution to this problem? If not, could anyone please apply this patch to the CVS version of the Makefile?
