Bug 259305 – app-text/epstool-3.08 fails to compile with gcc-4.3.3 (FORTIFY_SOURCE=2)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Richard Li 2009-02-17 03:05:13 UTC]

epstool-3.08 (and likely earlier versions) does not compile with gcc-4.3, apparently due to an upstream mistake.

I'll be attaching the patch.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Created attachment 182299 [details, diff]
patch

[Comment 2 Daniel J. 2009-02-17 18:35:49 UTC]

This should block bug 198121 instead of 249226.  249226 is reserved for GCC 4.4 issues; 198121 is appropriate for 4.3.

Done, thanks for the patch.
