Bug 14929 – nforce-net-1.0.0248 compile errors in gcc 2.95

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Toby Dickenson 2003-02-01 17:08:41 UTC]

The vendor-supplied Makefile uses the -falign-functions flag which does not    
exist in gcc 2.95.3. Changing the src_unpack in the ebuild as below works for   
me under the gentoo 1.2 profile on an Asus A7N8X board.   
   
This fix should only be used when using gcc 2.x. Is there a good way to   
detect this in an ebuild?   
    
src_unpack() {    
        unpack ${A}    
        cp nforce/nvnet/Makefile{,.old}    
        sed -e "s/-falign-functions/-malign-functions/"    
nforce/nvnet/Makefile.old > nforce/nvnet/Makefile    
}

yes, there is -- there's an eclass (gcc.eclass I think?)
