Apparantly Fedora applies a custom patch to glibc's tcsetattr()
function, which adds an extra check to verify the PARENB/CREAD/CSIZE
bits in the termios c_cflag field.
However, in commit 197b9f09421111e03588c94d55a72aa6ec624c63 we already
discovered that for pty's, some of the termios settings make no sense at
all, and therefore the Linux kernel always does:
tty->termios.c_cflag &= ~(CSIZE | PARENB);
tty->termios.c_cflag |= (CS8 | CREAD);
Thus, instead of ignoring such nonsense termios settings, the kernel
changes the termios structure to reflect what pty's actually do. The
consequence is that these settings will not stick, and cause the extra
check in the Fedora specific patch to fail.
To workaround this problem, we ignore the error when building
libdivecomputer with pty support enabled.
Overview ======== Libdivecomputer is a cross-platform and open source library for communication with dive computers from various manufacturers. The official web site is: http://www.libdivecomputer.org/ The sourceforge project page is: http://sourceforge.net/projects/libdivecomputer/ Installation ============ On UNIX-like systems (including Linux, Mac OS X, MinGW), use the autotools based build system. Run the following commands from the top directory (containing this file) to configure, build and install the library and utilities: $ ./configure $ make $ make install If you downloaded the libdivecomputer source code directly from the git source code repository, then you need to create the configure script as the first step: $ autoreconf --install To uninstall libdivecomputer again, run: $ make uninstall Support ======= Please send bug reports, feedback or questions to the mailing list: http://libdivecomputer.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel or contact me directly: jef@libdivecomputer.org License ======= Libdivecomputer is free software, released under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL).
