Bug 358797 – dev-perl/Gtk2-Unique: implicitly converted to pointer

• Status: RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Torsten Veller (RETIRED) 2011-03-14 08:16:17 UTC]

Uninstallable because of:

 * QA Notice: Package has poor programming practices which may compile
 *            but will almost certainly crash on 64bit architectures.
 *
 * Function `unique_command_to_string' implicitly converted to pointer at xs/UniqueApp.xs:32

How come my box didn't catch this error? :/ I will take a look

I guess, you didn't have dev-libs/libunique installed and the Gtk2-Unique Makefile.PL doesn't fail properly.

I think this is triggered by -Wall which also uses -Wimplicit. I will come up with a patch

This should be fixed now. Please reopen if you still have problems
