I already tried that and it didn't fix the problem. Also added to the
.mk file the following:

ifeq ($(BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_NATIVE_RPC),y)
RTPTOOLS_DEPENDENCIES += libtirpc
endif

After checking that libtirpc was installed, then I ran this command:

find output/staging/ -type f -name "ypclnt.h"

And that file doesn't exist either, so libtirpc can't fix the problem.

Regards,

Vincent.
