Created attachment 44538 [details, diff]
sysfsutils-1.2.0-gcc2.patch

Fixes compile with gcc-2.95

[Comment 2 Matt Taylor 2005-06-15 09:40:41 UTC]

still doesn't compile with sysfsutils-1.2.0-r1

[Comment 3 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2006-07-23 07:26:57 UTC]

Perhaps WONTFIX this? I guess noone really cares about gcc-2.95 now.
