patch 32756 was incorrect this fixes it

Description gent_bz 2004-04-29 20:32:31 UTC
Lots of unresolved symbols. Remedies by adding -fno-unit-at-a-time to CFLAGS.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge =sys-devel/gcc-3.4.0
2. emerge transcode




Portage 2.0.50-r6 (default-x86-2004.0, gcc-3.4.0, glibc-2.3.3_pre20040420-r0,

Comment 1 Nuno Alexandre 2004-04-30 00:24:41 UTC
I was having the same problem with gcc 3.3.3, but changing the CLFAGS to something more conservative ( default ) works ok.

Comment 2 Kathy Wills 2004-05-19 18:09:48 UTC
Thanks. Adding the -fno-unit-at-a-time to CFLAGS worked for me too.
Comment 3 Prakash Punnoor 2004-05-21 02:35:16 UTC
I think transcode needs the same fix as avifile does.

transcode-0.6.12-gcc-3.4.patch

This should do it. It uses __attribute__((used)) for variables, which will not
work with <gcc-3.4, so it should be applied conditionally.

applies 3.4 patch conditionally also adds -fno-unit-at-a-time conditionally

summarizes all discussed fixes and makes them conditional to gcc 3.4

patch 32756 was incorrect this fixes it

accidentally included unpack ${A} and cd ${S} in conditional block
tested now with 3.3.3 and 3.4.0
sorry for any inconvenience

sad but true cd${S} should have been cd ${S} , fixed

ok, when moving cd ${S} out of condtional i mistyped it

this merged with gcc 3.3 and 3.4
*sigh* sorry
Comment 8 Bret Towe 2004-06-05 19:10:52 UTC
using the ebuild patch and adding this patch: transcode-0.6.12-gcc-3.4.patch
that is attached to this bug
makes it compile fine and doesnt need the -fno-unit-at-a-time
and i do think it would be best to not use that cause according to the gcc
info pages not using it could slow down the code that is generated
and im sure everyone wants transcode to be as fast as it can
Comment 9 Bret Towe 2004-06-05 19:21:38 UTC
if there is any confusion which there prob is conserning me
i do mean not using unit-at-a-time could produce slower code
Comment 10 Disenchanted (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-05 19:40:48 UTC
Created attachment 32763 [details, diff]
uses transcode-0-6-12-gcc-3.4.patch and transcode-gcc34.patch

both gcc3.4 patches conditional on gcc 3.4
thanks for pointing out the slowdown Bret
Comment 11 Bret Towe 2004-06-08 19:05:18 UTC
this ebuild patch and the other patch for transcode to allow it to compile with gcc 3.4 works fine for me on x86
Comment 12 Disenchanted (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-25 18:18:49 UTC
All fixes applied conditionally for gcc-3.4.0 now, allow time for fixes to propagate to mirrers, then sync and compile transcode-0.6.12-r1
