Title: glibc_base-dev missing /usr/include/crypt.h
Post by: adb014 on June 16, 2025, 07:19:05 AM

While trying to rebuild busybox I note that the glibc_base_dev package in TC16 is missing the /usr/include/crypt.h file which causes the build to fail. This file is however mentioned in the provides.db file for TC16 in this file.

If you look here:

http://tinycorelinux.net/16.x/x86/tcz/glibc_base-dev.tcz.list

crypt.h is not listed.

libxcrypt_base-dev provides crypt.h and is a recursive dep of compiletc

Ok its not in the file you list, but it is in the provides.db

Code: [Select]

$ curl http://tinycorelinux.net/16.x/x86/tcz/provides.db | grep /usr/include/crypt.h
/usr/include/crypt.h

$less provides.db
...
glibc_base-dev.tcz
...
/usr/include/crypt.h

and it is needed for a rebuild of busybox. So either its missing from the TC16 version of glibc_base-dev (it was in TC15) or its moved and is not listed in provides.db

libxcrypt_base-dev is not in provides.db so difficult to find

Hi adb014
I just tried your command, but added -C5 to grep:

Code: [Select]

tc@E310:~$ curl http://tinycorelinux.net/16.x/x86/tcz/provides.db | grep -C5 /usr/include/crypt.h

tc@E310:~$It shows  "/usr/include/crypt.h"  was found exactly once
and it is part of  "libxcrypt_base-dev.tcz".

I also checked the time stamp of provides.db, it's Jun 14 15:16.

Is it possible your system is caching an older version of provides.db?

I rm'ed the provides.db and restarted and efefctively it found the libxcrypt-dev package
