[Pkg-monitoring-maintainers] Bug#992896: etbemon: FTBFS due to RPC removal from glibc

[Aurelien Jarno]

Source: etbemon
Version: 1.3.5-7
Severity: serious
Tags: patch ftbfs
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Dear maintainer,

The glibc SunRPC implementation has been marked obsolete for some time.
It has been removed upstream from glibc 2.32, and it got disabled in the
recent glibc uploads. The TI RPC implementation should be used instead,
which also brings new features (IPv6, Kerberos support, ...).

Your recent package upload failed to build in sid for that reason. You
will find attached a patch to switch to the TI RPC implementation,
fixing the FTBFS.

Regards,
Aurelien
