Description Brady Catherman 2006-05-15 18:19:54 UTC

sys-cluster/pvm-3.4.5-r2 fails to compile using GCC 4.1 with the specific message:
../../src/global.h:321: error: array type has incomplete element type
../../src/global.h:323: error: array type has incomplete element type

(along with tons of warnings.)

This build works great when compiling with GCC 3.4.6.

To fix this issue pvmtev.h needs to be included from global.h in the src directory. For my specific fix I added the line "sed -i -e '1 i\#include <pvmtev.h>' ${S}/src/global.h" to the top of src_compile(). After doing this PVM compiled (with warnings about strlen/strcpy being redefined).

This fix does seem sufficient to make pvm compile with gcc-4.1

Comment 2 Ernst Rohlicek 2006-07-02 08:50:03 UTC

Although I don't like all those warnings, this works for me. I'll try to inform the author of PVM.

Patch for gcc-4.1 is already in portage. Closing
