Description Stuart Shelton 2009-06-24 15:11:31 UTC 
app-arch/cpio-2.10 requires the following patch:

--- src/cpiohdr.h.dist  2009-06-24 15:41:26.983725240 +0100
+++ src/cpiohdr.h       2009-06-24 15:41:59.753567720 +0100

 #ifdef HAVE_ATTRIB_PACKED
 #define ATTRIB_PACKED __attribute__((packed))
+#else
+#define ATTRIB_PACKED
 #endif
 
 #ifdef HAVE_PRAGMA_PACK

... to build successfully on (non-GNU) compilers where HAVE_ATTRIB_PACKED is not defined.  Otherwise, the compiler barfs when ATTRIB_PACKED appears.

The cpio test-suite passes for the binary built with this change.

patch applied, thanks
Comment 2 Stuart Shelton 2010-05-25 09:33:45 UTC 
This patch is also needed with cpio-2.11 :(
Comment 3 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2010-07-09 20:23:52 UTC 
please report it upstream, it seems rather trivial to me, meaning next releases could just compile out of the box for IRIX.
