openssh unix dev - Jun 2003 - Build error on HP-UX

Hello,

I'm trying to compile openssh-3.6.1 P2 on an HP box running HP-UX
11.00.  After running configure, the first file it tries to compile is
openbsd-compat/bsd-arc4random.c.   It appears to give an error from one
of its include files:

cc: "../openbsd-compat/bsd-misc.h", line 72: error 1711: Inconsistent
parameter list declaration for "utimes".

I'm not doing anything funky in configure, so I can't believe I'm
the
first person to see this on HP-UX.  Is there a patch/workaround
available for this?

Thanks.

-Tom

IIRC, that happens when a function prototype does not match the actual
function declaration.  So, I'd grep through the code to see the
instances of utimes and make sure everything matches.

How does HP/UX define utimes?

This is how most OSes define it:

      int utimes(char *filename, struct timeval *tvp);

Outside the fact we skip variable names in the definition we do:

bsd-misc.c:int utimes(char *filename, struct timeval *tvp)
bsd-misc.h:int utimes(char *, struct timeval *);


Try in the bsd-misc.h changing it to be exactly as it's defined in the
bsd-misc.c.  Maybe your compiler is picky.
