Notice how it is in /usr/include/tirpc, while on my system it is in:

$ ls -l /usr/include/rpc/types.h 
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3233 Dec  6 18:20 /usr/include/rpc/types.h

So, in your system, a #include <rpc/types.h> doesn't find it, while it
does on my system. I believe it's because on your system, the RPC
implementation comes from libtirpc, while on my system, it comes from
glibc.

Best regards,

Thomas
