Conflict between getopt.h and kpathsea/getopt.h

[ojennrich]

In KPSFileFinder.cpp:

/usr/include/kpathsea/getopt.h:128: error: declaration of C function 'int KPS::getopt()' conflicts with
./getopt.h:47: error: previous declaration 'int KPS::getopt(int, char* const*, const char*)' here

Shouldn't that be caught by configure?

I currently can't reproduce this problem. Do you use an old version of kpathsea?
The following part of kpathsea.h should prevent these kind of compilation errors:

#if defined (__STDC__) && __STDC__
#ifdef __GNU_LIBRARY__
/* Many other libraries have conflicting prototypes for getopt, with
   differences in the consts, in stdlib.h. To avoid compilation
   errors, only prototype getopt for the GNU C library. */

Maybe you can also provide some more information about your system.
