Bug 218016 – media-sound/alsa-patch-bay-1.0.0-r2 will not compile with my GCC 4.3 toolchain on amd64

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description hackablecrap 2008-04-16 20:52:13 UTC]

Trying to get my system completely rebuilt with GCC 4.3 (to take advantage of the march=core2 setting), this is one of the last packages that I can't build on my toolchain. One of the others is gtkmm, so I tried to build this with fltk instead.
Got an error about something not being defined in the current scope. Tried it again with a -jack USE flag, got another error during compile.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge alsa-patch-bay with the fltk, jack, and alsa USE flags, and WITHOUT the gtkmm USE flag(the gtkmm package required for alsa-patch-bay doesn't compile with gcc 4.3 either, so you have to use fltk)
2.
3.

Actual Results:

Expected Results:  
The application should compile correctly with gcc 4.3

I'm a noob who doesn't know how to program, use at your own risk.

When you prepare patches you should probably use -x '*~' to avoid patching in backup files :)

Moving this to proaudio, I'll update metadata, as this is less desktop-sound stuff.
