Subject: netinet/in.h and asm/byteorder.h have conflicting types for ntohl/htonl
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Date: Sat, 24 Jan 1998 20:57:37 +0200
Sender: liw@zeus.cs.hut.fi
Package: libc6.1-dev
Version: 2.0.6-2
The following demonstrates the problem (don't worry about the filename
little-endian.c, it's not relevant):
$ cat little-endian.c
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <asm/byteorder.h>
int foo;
$ gcc -c little-endian.c
In file included from little-endian.c:2:
/usr/include/asm/byteorder.h:17: conflicting types for `ntohl'
/usr/include/netinet/in.h:198: previous declaration of `ntohl'
/usr/include/asm/byteorder.h:19: conflicting types for `htonl'
/usr/include/netinet/in.h:200: previous declaration of `htonl'
[status 1]
$
netinet/in.h is from libc. asm/byteorder.h is from kernel-headers-2.0.32
(2.0.32-3); this bug might be more appropriate for that package, I
don't know. I'm using an Alpha, and haven't checked whether the problem
exists on other platforms as well.
