[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi,

This patch fixes some Makefile variables according to these Gnulib NEWS
entries:

2023-01-07  fdatasync       Link with $(FDATASYNC_LIB) instead of
                            $(LIB_FDATASYNC).
[...]
2023-01-07  clock_time      Link with $(CLOCK_TIME_LIB) instead of
                            $(LIB_CLOCK_GETTIME).

IIRC these libraries are only needed on older Glibc, Solaris, Android,
and probably didn't break builds on modern platforms.

Collin

Hi Collin,

Thanks for the patch and the message.
I have just pushed your patch.

I was somewhat surprised to find that I have no trace of your original,
though I did find a very similarly-titled message about tar.
Please always keep the list or a tracker email Cc'd.
I've added 72610-done <at> debbugs.gnu.org manually.

Thanks! Interesting, perhaps I sent it at some unlucky time where GNU
servers were restarting. I think I remember some maintenance happening
around the time of my original message.
