What steps will reproduce the problem?
Attempt to build git 1.7.9.4 on Solaris 10
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
What I see during configure is this:
checking for socket in -lc... no
checking for inet_ntop... no
checking for inet_ntop in -lresolv... no
checking for inet_pton... no
checking for inet_pton in -lresolv... no
checking for hstrerror... no
checking for hstrerror in -lresolv... yes
and then after gmake, I eventually get this:
CC builtin/apply.o
"./git-compat-util.h", line 421: identifier redeclared: inet_ntop
current : function(int, pointer to const void, pointer to char, unsigned
lon

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
git 1.7.9.4 on x86_64-sun-solaris2.10. Building with the no-cost Oracle Studio
12.2 compiler toolchain
Please provide any additional information below.
Solaris does need "-lsocket" to get socket() and related functions, as the
comment in configure.ac indicates. However, you almost never link just
-lsocket. Instead, you link "-lsocket -lnsl", which contains a number of
related functions, including the inet_ntop, inet_pton, etc. The man pages for
socket(), inet_ntop(), inet_pton(), and others all list "-lsocket -lnsl" as the
libraries to link.
The comments in configure.ac about inet_ntop & inet_pton being in libresolv on
Solaris appear to be for versions that 10+ years out of date.
With the attached patch, configure instead outputs:
checking for socket in -lc... no
checking for socket in -lsocket... yes
checking for inet_ntop in -lnsl... yes
checking for inet_ntop... yes
checking for inet_pton... yes
checking for hstrerror... no
checking for hstrerror in -lresolv... yes
There are a couple other build issues, but I'll report those separately.

Hi Timothy,
Nobody relevant actually looks at this bugtracker, as far as I
know. It just got set up automatically as a side effect of putting
a git mirror and tarballs here.
Please report this and any other build bugs to the git list at
git@vger.kernel.org. No subscription needed, since the convention
is to always reply-to-all there.
Thanks,
Jonathan
