bison >= 1.50 ?
Created attachment 25075 [details, diff] openmotif-2.1.30-uil-bad_grammar_fix.diff Hm, unlike the more common missing semicolons, in Uil.y there is one too much (not really sure why this is legal in bison-1.34 *and* produces correct output...). suggested patch * removes superflous semicolon * adds 3 semicolons
mkennedy: please test this patch
in -r5, please test
I had the same problem. I use bison (GNU Bison) 1.875. x11-libs/openmotif-2.1.30-r5 fixed it for me.
