Bug#223773: busybox-cvs-static: FTBFS on i386
Package: busybox-cvs-static
Version: 20030926-2.1
Severity: serious
Justification: no longer builds from source
Busybox-cvs doesn't compile any more with the current libc6 and
linux-kernel-headers packages. It chokes on fdisk.c with the error:
util-linux/fdisk.c: In function `get_geometry':
util-linux/fdisk.c:4060: error: subscripted value is neither array nor pointer
It seems that the definition of _IOR has changed in the kernel headers,
and so the definition of BLKGETSIZE64 at the top of fdisk.c needs to be
updated. A patch is attached which changes this to be the same as the
#define in /usr/include/linux/fs.h.
