Source: cryptsetup
Version: 2:2.8.4-1
Severity: important

Justification: fails to build from source
User: debian-glibc@lists.debian.org
Usertags: glibc-2.43

Dear maintainer(s),

cryptsetup fails to build from source with glibc 2.43, currently in
experimental. From the build log:

| dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules binary subprocess failed with exit=
 status 2

The full build log is available here [1].

The issue is due to ISO C23 declaration of bsearch, memchr, strchr,
strpbrk, strrchr, strstr, wcschr, wcspbrk, wcsrchr, wcsstr and wmemchr,
which now returns a pointer to a const-qualified type when the input
argument is a pointer to a const-qualified type [2].

I would like to thanks Emanuele Rocca for doing the archive rebuild on
a fast arm64 server.

Regards
Aurelien
