add telnet

[Moelf]

[giordano]

We can't compile this with our old glibc, sigh.

[Moelf]

what's the solution? I don't mind first build a older telnet honestly

[giordano]

what's the solution?

At the moment? None, for the time being we're stuck with old glibc.

I don't mind first build a older telnet honestly

I don't think that'd make any difference.

[Moelf]

why? if it's "old" glibc, then we just need to find an old enough telnet right?

[Moelf]

also the tests were passing yesterday what happened

[giordano]

6a59a8e (#4978)

[Moelf]

how does OpenSSH manage to compile?

[giordano]

#4879

[giordano]

Maybe using OpenSSL? I don't know if telnet would like it, but maybe you can try that

[Moelf]

https://github.com/JuliaParallel/ClusterManagers.jl/blob/ff73e36e108cfd6810d6689c51696930a7503f63/src/condor.jl#L29

I don't think this usage can be replaced telnet -> ssh

[giordano]

I'm not sure what you mean

[Moelf]

what do you mean by using OpenSSH?

[giordano]

I said

Maybe using OpenSSL?

not OpenSSH. And I was answering your question

how does OpenSSH manage to compile?

since OpenSSH has OpenSSL as dependency https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil/blob/7289473d58445a58f358c48e77aab0f7540c0223/O/OpenSSH/build_tarballs.jl#L71

[Moelf]

sorry I'm blind today, let's see if it works

[Moelf]

nvm, giving up until we have a new glibc I guess

[giordano]

For reference, #5501 should help with bringing this forward

[giordano]

This is now working right, but the tarball contains more than just telnet

Also, the log shows

I presume you wanted only telnet, right?

[Moelf]

That's right

[giordano]

Now I get

Summary of build decisions:

It this what you want? Only telnet client, not the server.

Side comment: please, don't push commits which don't change the content of the T/telnet directory (like rebasing on master or merging it): the cache system we have in place here means that nothing changes in practice, apart from the fact the build log disappears, which makes my work harder.

[Moelf]

Yeah that looks right to me
