Quoting Robert Millan, who wrote the following on Fri, 30 Jul 2010:
2010/7/30, Seth Goldberg <address@hidden>:
I saw your commit of these changes. Why are you delivering a libzfs.h
and libnvpair.h?
I think GRUB should be using the headers that are installed on
the systems [...]
Unfortunately there are availability problems with libzfs.h and libnvpair.h. On
FreeBSD they're not installed system-wide. On OpenSolaris I can't see them
installed either (although in this one I'm probably missing something).
Ah, ok. As long as we try the system-installed libzfs.h first, I'm ok then.
On OpenSolaris, you'll need the system/headers package:
% ls -las /usr/include/libzfs.h
49 -rw-r--r-- 1 root bin 24369 Jun 9 13:43 /usr/include/libzfs.h
% pkg search -l libzfs.h
INDEX ACTION VALUE PACKAGE
basename file usr/include/libzfs.h pkg:/system/address@hidden
I'm all for switching to system-wide headers, and I completely agree with the
benefits. If the problem is FreeBSD-specific, I'll report it to
FreeBSD developers
and switch as soon as it is feasible.
Note: part of <grub/util/libzfs.h> is GRUB-specific though (a
declaration for global libzfs variable handle).
Ok, no problem.
Thanks,
