From: Andreas Jochens <aj@andaco.de>
When building 'mysql-dfsg' on amd64 I get the following error:
checking "LinuxThreads"... "Not found"
configure: error: This is a linux system and Linuxthreads was not
found. On linux Linuxthreads should be used. Please install Linuxthreads
(or a new glibc) and try again. See the Installation chapter in the
Reference Manual for more information.
make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 1
With the attached patch 'mysql-dfsg' can be compiled on amd64.
The amd64 port does not have the old 'legacy' linuxthreads
but only the newer nptl.
Regards
Andreas Jochens
How to repeat:
Try to compile on AMD64 architecture running Linux. Or at least Debian GNU/Linux, I'm not sure about others, ask Andreas.
Suggested fix:
