Re: zabbix 5.0.3 in pkgsrc-wip

[Juraj Lutter <otis%NetBSD.org@localhost>]

Hi,

please try this patch, if you can:

https://pkgsrc-smartos.wilbury.net/patches/NetBSD/patch-src_libs_zbxsysinfo_netbsd_net.c

This should fix the build not only on current, but also on other versions.
It’s a code taken out of netstat.

The only downside is that it does malloc() that zabbix tries to avoid at run time to
avoid the situations where the agent would not return any meaningful due to insufficient memory.

Because the zabbix server, agent and proxy shares many of the code (yes, even the code
that does make sense for agent is compiled into server and proxy and vice versa), this
patch should be applied to all components.

If successful, we can proceed further to determine what to do and I can work with upstream
to include this in subsequent updates.

Thanks
otis
