Even though this patch only 'hides' the real issue, one shouldn't compile stuff with -Werror unless actually developing. 

[Comment 4 Luca Barbato 2010-08-16 14:23:43 UTC]

I was about to commit an ebuild with some fixes, including that one, Christian would be able to ask upstream about removing the -Werror braindamage? (I'm pondering about migrating them to waf, if they are fond of python based build system why not using the one that works fine?)

[Comment 5 Luca Barbato 2010-08-16 15:44:14 UTC]

Ebuild in portage, passes tests, should work for everybody.

[Comment 6 Johan Bergström 2010-08-19 06:07:08 UTC]

Luca, last I spoke with them regarding building specifics (and suggestions) they inclined they wanted users to download binaries. I can open a bug about -Werror and see what happens.

The Bug about not compiling is filed here:
