From 2829d91cb807252dec5c843f8fb1fb38fb34cd07 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthias Andree Date: Sun, 10 Jun 2007 08:51:36 +0000 Subject: Check for dn_skipname() when checking res_search() to resolve µClibc compile failures. This works by disabling the DNS alias detection feature, which is however deprecated anyways.
