[gentoo-dev] keywording ~sys-libs/glibc-2.26

Hi all, 

in the next days I'll likely re-add keywords to glibc-2.26. So, if you haven't 
fixed your package for build failures yet, now would be the time. 

The tracker is https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=glibc-2.26 with 
appropriate subtrackers.

1) Your package needs RPC (and already now fails to build with sys-libs/
glibc[-rpc]). 

See https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Toolchain/RPC_implementation for a 
detailed guide.

2) Your package uses NIS/YP functionality, and builds against / links to 
libnsl. 

Add a dependeny (DEPEND and RDEPEND):
  net-libs/libnsl:0=

You can already safely do this now ( =net-libs/libnsl-0 is a dummy, stable on 
all arches, installs no files, depends on <sys-libs/glibc-2.26 ), and as an 
additional bonus will get the subslot rebuild automagically once libnsl is 
updated. 

(The unbundled libnsl has increased soversion, libnsl.so.2. glibc will keep 
installing libnsl.so.1 as compatibility library for binary packages, but 
without headers etc.)

3) Your package needs internal data structures and fails with undefined types.

Ping me. Most likely problem and fix are already known.

Cheers, 
Andreas

I take it Python was fixed to handle this?  I have my main MIPS machine tied up
on catalyst for the next few days, so I can't verify right now.  Initial
catalyst runs ~2 weeks ago indicated glibc-2.26 caused Python to fail its build
because either the RPC or NIS module failed to build (I forget which).

Yes, newest ~arch in all python slots is fixed.

(That was the main blocker for keywording.)
