[Bug 509450] [NEW] libguytoolsysinfo.so fails to build: sprintf not declared

[Kamal Mostafa]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libguytools1

libguytoolsysinfo.so (one of the libraries built by this package) fails
to build:

make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/buildd/libguytools1-1.0.4/sysinfo'
g++ -c -pipe -O2 -O3 -D_REENTRANT -Wall -W -fmessage-length=0 -fPIC -DLIBGUYTOOLS_VERSION=\"1.0.4\" -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_GUI_LIB -DQT_CORE_LIB -DQT_SHARED -I/usr/share/qt4/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I/usr/include/qt4/QtCore -I/usr/include/qt4/QtGui -I/usr/include/qt4 -I../include -I. -o toolsysinfo.o toolsysinfo.cpp
toolsysinfo.cpp: In function 'APIRET ToolSysInfoGetMacAddr(t_ToolSysInfoMacAddr*)':
toolsysinfo.cpp:90: error: 'sprintf' was not declared in this scope
make[1]: *** [toolsysinfo.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/buildd/libguytools1-1.0.4/sysinfo'

However, this qmake-qt4-based build continues anyway and completes
"successfully", just omitting the broken libguytoolsysinfo.so library.
Packages which depend on libguytools1 for this library will therefore
FTBFS, e.g. package 'guymager' http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35999162
/buildlog_ubuntu-lucid-amd64.guymager_0.4.2-1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz :

   [guymager...FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz]:  /usr/bin/ld: cannot find
-lguytoolsysinfo
