Hi list,

my build system has failed to compile current master branch since commits 13dc91f5b or 9fbd4e6fc.

The error is:

c-ares is not available on my system:
---
Use c-ares library : no (name resolution will be disabled)

In addr_resolv.c:2659 async_dns_queue_head is called without a preliminary '#ifdef HAVE_C_ARES' statement

Any ideas to fix it?

Cheers
Uli

Probably surround lines 2659 & 2660 with a #ifdef HAVE_C_ARES\#endif pair, and if it works then submit a change to Gerrit.
