Bug 131457 – media-gfx/kphotoalbum with use=exif needs gcc 3.3.6

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description rob miller 2006-04-27 07:43:49 UTC]

[in my hands] when compiled using gcc 3.4.5 and the exif use flag, kphotoalbum crashes with an invalid pointer.  it runs ok if compiled with 3.3.6.  the dependency exiv2 library also needs to be compiled with 3.3.6 to avoid the crash, and the optional kipi-plugins won't compile with 3.4.5 (but will with 3.3.6)

> CFLAGS="-O3 -march=athlon -funroll-loops -pipe -m32"

Don't use insane CFLAGS, change that to smthing like CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=athlon" instead. This bug just can't be taken seriously before.

[Comment 2 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) 2006-04-27 09:06:34 UTC]

Also, if your -march is athlon.. why do you have USE="sse sse2" enabled? Athlon doesn't support sse or sse2. Invalid instructions.

[Comment 3 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) 2006-04-27 09:50:18 UTC]

No, you have all C++ libs to rebuild after updating from gcc 3.3 to 3.4.
