warewulf3 build error: undefined reference to `stime'

[huangtianhua]

I built warewulf3 on my environment which glibc is version 2.34, the error raised : undefined reference to `stime'.
stime() has been deprecated in glibc 2.31 and replaced with clock_settime().
So is it have to depend glibc under 2.31?

[jmstover]

What was being built at the time? iPXE? busysbox or e2fsprogs? WW3 is perl/shell scripts but there are a number of 3rd party utilities built for use.

I think I have also seen this. The error happens during busybox build and requires a newer version of busybox where this is fixed.

@bensallen ... Update busybox in provision/3rd_party/GPL (and related) ? Or have you seen it elsewhere?

@jmstover yea we might as well rev busybox forward. From their website it seems latest stable is 1.34.1. If you happen to want to do this, here is the last time we did so as a reference: https://github.com/warewulf/warewulf3/pull/279/files. If not no worries, I'll grab this when I get a free moment.

Only caveat I'm aware of will be if something changed in busybox.config and the build bails out from that. I've typically generated the default busybox config and diff'ed it against ours to see if anything important is missing or changed.

I belive this issue already resolved in v3.10.0.
