SunRPC replacement (XDR)
SunRPC has been removed from glibc 2.26+. Thus, rpc/types.h
and rpc/xdr.h
are no longer provided by the library. I guess we should just switch to libtirpc and adapt the FindXDR module to find the headers in the new location tirpc/rpc/...
. We could also use ntirpc, which provides CMake integration. :+1:
I have just pushed a patch (d35573af281c0379c44cd5481464c6e3b3bb0006) to make XDR optional so that VIEW/BALLView can be compiled again while this issue is being fixed.
