Subject: Re: [meta-networking][RFC PATCH 0/1] Failed to compile networkmanager with musl
Date: Wed, 28 Aug 2019 21:06:16 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190828180616.GA3044@localhost> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CAMKF1sroS6zWjdRmh2GLbCF62Hnmifzdr282t8JZBB-ONzd82Q@mail.gmail.com>

What about marking networkmanager as incompatible with musl instead of 
maintaining an ever-growing mess?

Networkmanager uses parts of systemd as a library and also has own
glibc-only usages.

Both systemd and networkmanager are fundamentally Linux-only,
and for systemd it is known that upstream has made the design
decision to not compromise their software for rare usecases
with C libraries other than glibc.

AFAIK OE is the only distribution trying to build either of these
with musl, other musl-using distributions are using less heavyweight
solutions.
