Subject: libc0.3-dev: struct ether_addr defined twice
Package: libc0.3-dev
Version: 2.9-25
Severity: normal

On Hurd (tested on strauss.debian.net) both /usr/include/net/ethernet.h
and /usr/include/netinet/if_ether.h define a struct ether_addr:

/usr/include/net/ethernet.h:
struct ether_addr
{
  u_int8_t ether_addr_octet[ETH_ALEN];
};

/usr/include/netinet/if_ether.h:
struct ether_addr
{
  u_int8_t ether_addr_octet[6];
} __attribute__ ((__packed__));


This causes problems with software that includes both header files. e.g.
see:
http://buildd.debian-ports.org/fetch.php?pkg=nss-pam-ldapd&arch=hurd-i386&ver=0.7.0&stamp=1252363928&file=log&as=raw

With Glibc on Linux (i386) only /usr/include/net/ethernet.h defines the
struct.

Sorry to not have more details (no reportbug on strauss). A minimal C
program to reproduce:

#include <net/ethernet.h>
#include <netinet/if_ether.h>
int main(int argc,char *argv[]){return 0;}

Thanks.

This issue has been fixed in version 2.10.2-6 by the following patch:

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-glibc/glibc.git/commit/?id=2aba5964fceaf30a681a5cd823178b489d815427

I am therefore closing the bug.
