Bug 49242 – gnome-cups-manager-0.17 fails to compile with gcc 3.4.0

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Robert Moss (RETIRED) 2004-04-27 21:11:59 UTC]

Simple error - there's an extra pair of parentheses on one line in one file that shouldn't be there. This breaks compilation. The attached patch fixes it.

Reproducible: Always

Patch to fix compilation error

[Comment 2 Bret Towe 2004-06-06 22:20:33 UTC]

this patch works for me with gcc 3.4 on x86

[Comment 3 Edward Hervey 2004-06-07 02:59:29 UTC]

This patch works for me too with gcc3.4 on ~amd64

Ebuild for 0.18

0.18 is out, and works unpatched here. Please test, as this is much nicer than
patching a CVS snapshot...

0.18 with patch added to portage. 

[Comment 7 Robert Moss (RETIRED) 2004-06-09 16:15:13 UTC]

Just wanted to retract my previous comment - the patch is still needed in all cases. Hadn't realised I was applying it!

[Comment 8 scaba 2004-07-16 05:56:43 UTC]

hmm, i still get that parentheses error while trying to compile gnome-cups-manager-0.18 with gcc-3.4.1-r1. it seems that the patch somehow isn't getting applied, eventhough i made sure it's there and the ebuild looks good to me as well. any ideas?

[Comment 9 Robert Moss (RETIRED) 2004-07-16 06:03:43 UTC]

What's your exact error? It's possible that the same kind of error could be being thrown up, but in a different place, perhaps due to a local setting. Also, please post "emerge info", as we could do with knowing what version of Portage/glibc etc. you have, amongst other things.

thanks for answering so quickly.

sorry, but i've got only the console right now (writing this on another machine) and i haven't been able to catch the error message in a text file.

i found the cause of my problem. portage was using the ebuild from 'bmg-gnome-current' which hasn't got that error fixed yet.
sorry about that, it's working fine now.
