Bug 114313 – speech-tools has a conditional gcc-3.4 patch

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Mark Loeser (RETIRED) 2005-12-02 20:26:23 UTC]

I am CC'ing sound as well because you both are listed as maintainers.

speech-tools has an evil conditional patch in it, so now every person on x86
upgrading is going to have broken headers when trying to compile festival
because speech-tools was not compiled using gcc-3.4.  The condition in the
ebuild shouldn't exist at all, and we are probably going to have to have to bump
stable on x86 to a new version so people who don't know what the issue is will
have it fixed.

Please remove the condition and let us know which version we should mark stable.

Okay, it looks like upstream for this is dead.  I'm unsure why the patches fail
and don't have the time to look into it really.  So can someone from
accessibility either fix the patches or get a replacement for this package?  Or
perhaps one of the other distros has a fix for this already.  Porting this for
gcc-4.0 is probably going to be a complete nightmare as well.

Fixes C++ stuff so that festival will compile with gcc 4

This will allow for the package to compile and run, but it throws all kinds of deprecation warnings and whatnot when it compiles. So it could use some cleaning.

I pulled these patches from fedora cvs. These will allow you to compile festival and speech-tools with gcc 4.0.2. It throws up a bunch of warnings so it could use some more scrutiny, but I can echo "All your base are belong to us" | festival --tts and it works :)

Should my gcc 4 fixes be filed as a new bug?

Alright, keeping x86 on this isn't necessary until we have a fix.  Can someone from accessibility let us know if we are keeping this package or if we are going to p.mask it?  It doesn't look like its had a release in quite some time now.

This is resolved by 116030.  Closing.  Thanks.
