Hi
lxc 4.0.12 doesn't compile anymore on Slackware current with glibc 2.36

Required information

  • Distribution: Slackware
  • Distribution version: current
  • Glibc : 2.36
  • Kernel : 5.19.1

Steps to reproduce

  1. tar xvf lxc-4.0.12.tar.gz
  2. cd lxc-4.0.12
  3. ./configure --prefix=/usr
  4. make

e.g.

mount_utils.c: In function 'create_detached_idmapped_mount':
mount_utils.c:297:29: error: passing argument 4 of 'mount_setattr' from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]

The 4.0 branch is only updated for security issues. We already have merged fixes for the new glibc in the 5.0 branch though it looks like more will be coming soon to handle some more issues caused by the new C library.

package/lxc: bump to version 5.0.1
db19998 
LXC 5.0 will be supported until June 2027 and our current LTS release,
LXC 4.0 will now switch to a slower maintenance pace, only getting
critical bugfixes and security updates.

We strongly recommend all LXC users to plan an upgrade to the 5.0
branch.

- Switch to meson-package
- Add an upstream patch to fix the following build failure with glibc
  2.36 (unfortunately upstream doesn't plan to fix this for 4.x:
  lxc/lxc#4183 and patch is only working with
  meson, not autotools)
