FWIW, I already have patches for these on Cygwin, where we've used libtirpc exclusively for some time: https://github.com/cygwinports/kdebase3/blob/master/3.5.10-libtirpc.patch https://github.com/cygwinports/kde-runtime/blob/master/15.04.3-libtirpc.patch https://github.com/cygwinports/kf5-kio-extras/blob/master/16.08.3-nfs-libtirpc.patch >> Also, does this mean that libtirpc's headers will move out of >> /usr/include/tirpc? > > That's up to the libtirpc maintainer. It would make silent disablement of NFS less likely, as the headers would be found by libtirpc-unaware packages. -- Yaakov Selkowitz Software Engineer - Platform Enablement Group Red Hat, Inc.
