problem applying patch
I run OpenBSD 4.2 release, and keep it up to date applying patches per the errata page. http://openbsd.org/errata42.html - 013: SECURITY FIX: July 23, 2008 2nd revision.
Attempting to apply the very important bind patch, I found it would not compile. So I reversed the patch, to check if the original version would compile. I even download the source again to check if a clean version would compile. In both cases I get the same error: Code:
cc -I/usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/obj -I. -Iinclude -I/usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/obj/lib/dns/include -I/usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/lib/dns/include -I/usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/obj/lib/isc/include -I/usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/lib/isc -I/usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/lib/isc/include -I/usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/lib/isc/unix/include -I/usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/lib/isc/nothreads/include -DUSE_MD5 -DOPENSSL -O2 -pipe -W -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wcast-qual -Wwrite-strings -Wformat -Wpointer-arith -fno-strict-aliasing -c /usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/lib/dns/acl.c In file included from /usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/lib/dns/include/dns/types.h:154, from /usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/lib/dns/include/dns/name.h:82, from /usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/lib/dns/include/dns/acl.h:40, from /usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/lib/dns/acl.c:26: include/dns/enumtype.h:77: error: redefinition of `dns_rdatatype_dlv' include/dns/enumtype.h:76: error: `dns_rdatatype_dlv' previously defined here *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/obj/lib/dns. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/obj/lib (line 99 of Makefile). *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/obj (line 97 of Makefile). *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src/usr.sbin/bind (line 54 of /usr/src/usr.sbin/bind/Makefile.bsd-wrapper).

I don't know how to work out how the build process generates that file (athough make clean gets rid of it). I don't know which value is correct, even if I do work out how that file gets generated. I figure I am not the only person who has attempted to apply this patch, and I can't find any other reports of it on Google, so it's unlikely to be a general problem associated with the 'release' or 'stable' version, and is probably something specific to my systems' build options, which is causing this error. But what? Thanks in advance if you can assist. Cheers Sam |

Be sure you are using Revision 2 of the patch:
ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/pa...004_bind.patch |
|

Ooops. I gave you the 4.3 patch link. Here's the 4.2 patch link instead:
ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/pa...013_bind.patch |

Yeah the patch applied just fine, and as I said, when I reversed the patch, it still would not compile, so it's just that this particular issue has highlighted a problem.
Weirdly I checked out the sources from CVS... cvs checkout -P -rOPENBSD_4_2 src (a) the patch is already there in stable (b) the CVS sources compile without an error. Since it's working I'm happy and feel protected And a lesson learned perhaps... better to use CVS and run stable rather than running release and applying patches. Cheers Richard |

I don't know about that, I've been following release+patches for awhile now.. no issues so far, I may miss out on some of the stable back ports, but I rest assured important changes will be made available at a time convenient to the developers.
