Bug 110646 – kdegraphics-3.4.3 ksvg implementation fails to build with GCC 4.0

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Igor V. Kovalenko 2005-10-27 14:10:24 UTC]

kdegraphics-3.4.3 cannot be compiled with GCC 4.0 due to dereferences of
forward-declared c++ class objects. I bet this was discussed on gcc-dev list
this month


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have gcc-4.0.x the default compiler
2. emerge kdegraphics (from KDE 3.4.3)
3.

Actual Results:  
build failed

Expected Results:  
emerge succeeded

It's [to my mind] clearly a problem with kdenetwork and recent changes to GCC4 -
missing class declarations are preventing more strict compiler from successful
compilation

Created attachment 71589 [details, diff]
Patch to introduce missing class declarations

with this patch applied kdegraphics-3.4.3 can be installed with GCC 4.0

Submit them upstream if you want, bug KDE 3.5 should be GCC4-clear.  
And being GCC4 experimental, I don't really think it's the case to add patches  
over that.
