I tried to build a core-image-minimal using uclibc for mpc8544 (verifying bug Bug 8025) and I got a known error for building busybox: " No such file or directory # include <utmp.h> " Seems to be related to uClibc-0.9.33 version, which has UTMP support disabled.

here lies the problem busybox has CONFIG_FEATURE_UTMP=y where as uclibc has # UCLIBC_HAS_UTMP is not set
A solution has been suggested by Khem, let's go ahead and patch uclibc to enable the UCLIBC_HAS_UTMP config option
I believe this bug is fixed with bumping busybox to 1.24 because we're lacking this patch: http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox-cvs/2015-April/035099.html
We still have some issues: configure: error: Systems with UTMPX and no ut_id field in the utmp structure are not supported Configure failed.

hello Bogdan, does this mean you tried it with the patch I mentioned? Just telling you because what I was going to do was to try the upgrade of busybox to 1.24 as I don't know what else this patch depends on
Hi Benjamin, it build the 'busybox' now (w/o the patch), the error occurs when building 'shadow'; after adding UCLIBC_HAS_UTMP=y in meta/recipes-core/uclibc/uclibc-git/uClibc.distro 'shadow' package builds ok and errors are gone. I will re-test from scratch using current master, then applying the patch, then adding UCLIBC_HAS_UTMP=y.
- busybox build seems ok on master - the issue moved to 'shadow' package "| checking for struct utmp.ut_xtime... no | checking for struct utmp.ut_tv... no | configure: error: Systems with UTMPX and no ut_id field in the utmp structure are not supported | Configure failed.

Bogdan, thanks for making the test, I believe that the shadow package is also prepared for utmpx and it could be fixed with the change proposed in contrib::besquive/shadow-utmpx: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/commit/?h=besquive/shadow-utmpx&id=134beaf8391b344cfcfbd823ac89a75ed89214e9 It seems that Khem's suggestion and your test confirm that the bug is not shown with UCLIBC_HAS_UTMP=y in meta/recipes-core/uclibc/uclibc-git/uClibc.distro but this work of updating the busybox recipe will have to be done anyways and I believe it solves the bug. Plus, the person that finally updates busybox will need to undo this proposed change and go back to UTMPX
Hi Bogdan, I checked the --enable-utmpx option in the shadow package and it does not fix it. I'm not sure of the effects of such flag in shadow but it certainly still looks out for utmp.h. Effectively, utmp.h is placed in the sysroot by setting up UCLIBC_HAS_UTMP in uclibc like you mentioned. So, after all it looks like UCLIBC_HAS_UTMP fixes it in one single change. It still looks like the shadow package is not prepared to use utmpx and it might be an issue of it's own. Bogdan, if you put the patch for the UCLIBC_HAS_UTMP = y configuration I'll assign this bug to you. Let me know.
Thank you, Benjamin! I will fix it.
