Description

I'm trying to build 1.4.63 on glibc 2.16 where clock_gettime is in librt.so

[31/195] Linking target src/test_common
FAILED: src/test_common

I'm using meson and ninja for configuring/building.
(here in redmine could be a new category "build_meson" created?)

Found the block:

conf_data.set('HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME', compiler.has_header_symbol('time.h', 'clock_gettime'))
clock_lib = []
if not(conf_data.get('HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME'))
        if compiler.has_function('clock_gettime', args: defs + ['-lrt'], prefix: '#include <time.h>')
                conf_data.set('HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME', true)
                clock_lib = [ compiler.find_library('rt') ]
        endif
endif

in src/meson.build for checking clock_gettime() but I have no clue how should I fix the problem.

I think I have found the solution. Patch attached against src/meson.build, please review.

glibc 2.16 was released in Jun 2012. https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Glibc%20Timeline
Latest glibc release is glibc 2.34.

FYI, the first release of meson was Mar 2013.

Still, I am glad that lighttpd is being updated, even if some other parts of the system are ancient.

Thank you for the patch.

(probably should simply be a 'build' category)

Sorry for the delay, redmine messages landed in the spam folder.

The patch fixes the build problem.
