[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#709387: xfce4-power-manager: FTBFS on hurd-i386

Source: xfce4-power-manager
Version: 1.2.0-1
Severity: important
User: debian-hurd at lists.debian.org

Hi,

xfce4-power-manager 1.2.0 fails to compile on GNU/Hurd [1].

The problem is the unconditional #includes of sys/sysctl.h and
sys/user.h, which are not standard and not provided on GNU/Hurd.
Few months I reported the issue upstream [2] with a bit more of details
not repeated here, without reply yet.

Would it be possible to backport the patch until upstream deals with
it?  I tested the compilation with it on Linux, kFreeBSD and Hurd,
and all compiled fine with it.
(Also, it seems it could fix the build on x32 [3], whose sys/sysctl.h
is not usable on purpose.)
