Bug#686103: libetpan: FTBFS on hurd-i386
Source: libetpan
Version: 1.1-2
Severity: important
Tags: patch
User: debian-hurd@lists.debian.org
Usertags: hurd
Hi,
Currently libetpan does not build for GNU/Hurd due to PATH_MAX issues.
The patch inlined below defines PATH_MAX to be 4096 if not defined.
Since there are too many strings using the fixed length of PATH_MAX in
the code it is not worth the effort to convert to dynamic allocation.
(At least not at this time, unless upstream shows interest.)
Thanks!
