Bug 214747 – x11-plugins/wmnd-0.4.11-r1 fails with kernel headers 2.6.24

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Manuel Faux 2008-03-25 17:15:28 UTC]

I successfully emerged x11-plugins/wmnd-0.4.11-r1 on a x86 with kernel headers 2.6.23-r3. On a x86 system with 2.6.24 headers the build fails:

In file included from /usr/include/asm/sigcontext.h:4,
                 from /usr/include/bits/sigcontext.h:28,
                 from /usr/include/signal.h:333,
                 from wmnd.h:30,
                 from display.c:9,
/usr/include/asm/types.h:14: error: duplicate 'unsigned'
/usr/include/asm/types.h:14: error: two or more data types in declaration specifiers

Reproducible: Always

i had the same issue as this, but found that dropping back to gcc-3.4.6 allowed the emerge to work. it fails under gcc-4.1.2 here.

[Comment 3 Mark Fisher 2008-08-12 09:31:58 UTC]

I've just found that the latest version on http://www.thregr.org/~wavexx/software/wmnd/#Files (0.4.13) compiles against gcc-4.1.2 and seems to be an immediate drop in for 0.4.11-r1.

http://www.thregr.org/~wavexx/software/wmnd/releases/wmnd-0.4.13.tar.gz is the source.

no change (other than name) to the build file was needed either.

Version 0.4.13 is now in Portage, ready to be tested...
Thanks for the submission!
