OK, I see your problem with different platforms. So I have tuned the
patch a little bit. Now it doesn't hardcode -lnsl in the tcp wrapper
section, instead it uses AC_SEARCH_LIBS(yp_get_default_domain, nsl) to
conditionally add it to LIB if not already included. So in Solaris
libnsl will be added via AC_SEARCH_LIBS(gethostbyname, nsl) at line 93
in configure.ac, in Linux via AC_SEARCH_LIBS(yp_get_default_domain,
nsl) in line 311 (after apply patch), but only if tcp wrappers are
enabled.
Why yp_get_default_domain? Because of this error message (see
config.log without patch):
gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wall -Wshadow -Wcast-align -Wpointer-arith
-I/usr/include conftest.c -lz -ldl -lutil -lpthread -L/usr/lib
-lssl -lcrypto -lwrap
/usr/lib/libwrap.a(hosts_access.o)(.text+0x64f): In function
`host_match':
: undefined reference to `yp_get_default_domain'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Here the patch:
