Bug 420799 – games-sports/xmoto-0.5.9: compile error with gcc-4.7

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Philipp Middendorf 2012-06-12 09:13:47 UTC]

xmoto-0.5.9 doesn't compile with gcc-4.7:

helpers/System.cpp: In static member function 'static std::string System::getMemoryInfo()':
helpers/System.cpp:108:18: error: 'getpid' was not declared in this scope

This is because "getpid" is defined in unistd.h, which was included by the C(++) standard library headers until gcc-4.7 changed that.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install and switch to gcc-4.7
2. Compile xmoto (doesn't matter which use flags)
