I tried to apply crude patches. Since _POSIX_C_SOURCE is defined when <string.h> is included (in pre-compiled source I see

Meanwhile version 1.32.2 builds. Greatest change is Python 3.12 instead of 3.11…

Sorry, I meant they do *not* arrive at the web interface, they are not visible to me.

It seems my eMails to gnupg-devel@gnupg.org do reach the list …

On Mac OS X 10.5.8, PPC Leopard, it built with the patch, gpg-agent works.

Trying to reach Ralph Seichter via the eMail address he is using failed – Osterferien?

I've reported the success to MacPorts. My test was performed on only one platform, Mac OS X 10.4.11 or "Tiger". Since there exists a problem with building recent version of GPGME testing on Mac OS X 10.5.8 or "Leopard" will have to wait a few days…

With the unified patch all works fine (again), even the test target succeeds!

Performing the patch manually the "port" (package) built and installed. Starting then gpg-agent worked too, killing it (with gpgconf) worked as well.

By adding "-Wl,-t" to the arguments g++ reported:

Libtool invocation has "--tag=CXX --mode=link /opt/local/bin/g++-mp-7 -std=c++11 -pipe -Os -std=c++17 -D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0", but g++ then has no -lstdc++ – in C -lc is automatically used because there all C library functions can be taken from… (same for mathematical functions and -lm)

Tiger's /usr/include/AvailabilityMacros.h seems to provide what rndlinux.c was looking for: libgcrypt 1.9.2 just built!

Alright! Here is the error report from GCC:

There is some (partly) good news: The function getentropy() is available in the packet manager MacPorts. It has a legacy support:

To do that, I'd like to know, when the symbol getentropy was added.

Wouldn't it be better to move these failures as a single one into the configure script that it definitely can tell "This Mac has getentropy()"?

I applied the two patches on Mac OS X 10.5.8, Leopard, to random/rndlinux.c, resulting in this unified diff:

In the next few days I'll be able to boot into Leopard, Mac OS X 10.5.8, to test this. Right now it seems that I need to fix a few problems with updated software sources…

After libgcrypt 1.9.0 first built on Tiger and 'make check' succeeded I ran 'make clean' and applied the changes to random/rndlinux.c. A simple make succeeded without problem. 'make check' then ran into problems, spitting out many times messages messages like these:

With these two patches libgcrypt 1.9.0 built on PPC Tiger, Mac OS X 10.4.11. 'make check' succeeded.

I tested building on Ubuntu 8.04 (gcc-4.2) and got same error about cipher_bulk_ops_t. Applying patch fixed that problem.

I see now my mistake: I also have to re-write line #132 which I did not see yet!

With your other patch I still get:

Thanks for testing. However, I do not believe patch has been correctly applied.

The "Portfile" that conducts the build process has the patch contained, I sent you the list of files being patched, and here is the end of my translated patch set:

Alright!

Right now I am compiling with my old PowerBook in Tiger. In case a compilation fails I'll try this patch – on Tiger (Mac OS X 10.4.11)! It's a bit more primitive than Leopard.

This happens on at least PPC Mac OS X 10.4.11, Tiger. Compiler is by default Apple's
version of GCC 4.2. The error is reported as this:

Cause is that the declaration of 'INADDR_LOOPBACK' is hidden behind some guards. The
two external links document the situation, they also offer patches, either the attached
one or this addition for src/assuan-socket.c:

//fix missing define in MacOSX 10.4 Tiger
#ifndef INADDR_LOOPBACK

#define INADDR_LOOPBACK (u_int32_t)0x7f000001

#endif

In ten days I'll be at home again with my Apple PowerBook G4 and might have time to
check the situation in Mac OS X 10.5, Leopard.
