As mentioned in the previous commit, it hasn't been maintained since 1993 and there are derivative projects which likely solve these issues. The code has "worked" since 1993 and I suspect unlikely to ever be of much interest to new platforms, given that it's only even useful as a point of reference compared to its modern derivatives. Keep in mind the code is so old that it's from back when the most recent brand new C revision supported implicit function declarations. Trying to solve its C issues seems unworthwhile. Just -std=c89 it. Actually, gnu89 since it depends on `#define linux` to detect the platform. :P Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/919301 Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/944870 Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/945068 Signed-off-by: Eli Schwartz <eschwartz@gentoo.org> sci-electronics/spice/spice-3.5.5-r4.ebuild | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+)
