BUG: linking errors with cimg/python:3.11.0 and glibc

Hi @neutrinoceros - there are a couple of factors here:

• RPC functionality was dropped in favor of TIRPC
• io_nchilada.c and io_tipsy.c are referencing /usr/include/rpc/types.h in their include headers, not /usr/include/tirpc/rpc/types.h, which is what your ls | grep is showing
• python 3.11 is built off ubuntu 22.04, which uses tirpc rather than rpc.

If you were to change the include references to point to the correct path like above, you won't encounter the error. However, the types.h file has an internal include reference to netconfig.h. this does not exist in /usr/include/tirpc/rpc, but in usr/include/tirpc - you can reference this to edit and git apply the correct CFLAGS, e.g -I/usr/include/tirpc to address the above.

Additionally, i initially tried running your original code with git apply ../rockstar-patches/cflags.patch and it wasn't working. if you add the --whitespace=fix flag, you would be able to do so without using sed.

Lastly, even with those fixes, it seems there are multiple definition errors that are preventing compilation. I would assume those are coming from the rockstar-galaxies repo, though. Please note: the python versions that were passing tests were built using a cimg/base image using Ubuntu 20.04.

Python 3.11 does not have such an image at the moment. If you would like to make one for yourself in the meantime, you can edit the dockerfile to be FROM cimg/base:2022.01-20.04

Thank you so much for your help and this detailed answer. I confirm that adding -I/usr/include/tirpc to CFLAGS fixes Rockstar's compilation. The remaining issues with my build are unrelated.
