Bug#338985: Bug#338984 closed by "Joop Stakenborg" <joop.pg4i@gmail.com> (Closing old bugs)
Dear readers,
For the bug and solution I refer to my email of 15 November 2005.
I read the comment of Hamid, sorry to say, you are wrong.
I am not sure about version number of libax25, but they depend
directly on kernel functions.
If I am correct there are 2 major changes one in from 2.0 kernel to
2.2 and the one from 2.2 to 2.4. In these changes function handles are
changed and also in libax25.
The 2.4 to 2.6 change, was inside the kernel functions not the handles
and pointers.
In the FBB program they use an old libax25 handle if you compile the
program for 2.2 kernel, hence it will not work on a system running
2.4.
Technically you are right, there is no bug in libax25 or FBB. But the
problem was that both the libax25 and FBB were compiled with wrong
options. Hence my remark that you let libax25 depend on the right
kernel. So a dependency and not a suggestion.
Thank you for listening to my complaining.
73, Arjan
