Hi Dimitri,

This is actually a known issue, the include files re-define one of the functions, and we just remove the wrong lines at syntax.h lines; and upload those files to the repo. Unless there is a good reason to dig in the mysteries of lex&yacc we'll update manually the repo. Note also that the parsers are pretty stable right now and usually there is now need to rebuild them....

Anyway thanks for looking into it and reporting back!

IMHO there are pretty good reasons to re-build those files such as to make sure that everything it properly and consistently re-built from source on all architectures as well as to to avoid shipping pre-built files. This is a good practice and almost "a must" for Debian packages.

According to Debian, pre-built files that can't be re-built from source on build-time are non-free and therefore can't be shipped.
This qualifies for "serious" bug that can get "opennebula" package removed from Debian.

I'd very much like to have it fixed please.
