Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-03-02 14:13:55 UTC
Hello,

you're receiving this canned bug because the package in summary uses the flag -Werror during build, which transforms warnings in errors, and is prone to break software when new GCC releases are added to Gentoo.

Please make sure your package does not use -Werror during build, so that it can be more future-proof for the new GCC releases.

Thanks,
Diego

if you're going to script bug reports, please do use an up-to-date tree.  This bug is a dup and was probably fixed by:

revision 1.4
date: 2009-02-26 19:59:09 -0500;  author: mr_bones_;  state: Exp;  lines: +16 -8;  commitid: 2a8149a73add4567;
EAPI=2; a bit better compile; remove -Werror for bug #260186

Sorry, I got a tree that's about a week old, the tinderbox takes time to crunch data :/
