What OS was that on? I got the same thing with OpenBSD 3.8.

Greetings,

 

I just got the nightly snapshot and now I am getting the

following error when trying to compile it:

clientupdate.c: In function 'main':

clientupdate.c:49: error: too few arguments to function

'drop_root_and_removesuid'

make[1]: *** [clientupdate] Error 1

make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/hobbit/snapshot/client'

make: *** [client] Error 2

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Adam

 

I found my answer in one of the other source files. I changed the line "drop_root_and_removesuid();" in client/clientupdate.c to match a similar line in client/logfetch.c: "drop_root_and_removesuid(argv[0]);"

That seems to have done the trick, and it compiled fine and seem to be running fine too.

Ah, looks like "drop_root_and_removesuid()" is expecting a char *. I'm not

sure what "fn" the function refers to, so I'm not sure how to fix the problem.

I've never made a patch file before, so hopefully I got this right. At least, it seemed to work when I did a dry run of it on my computer...
