Bug 40338 – ttmkfdir compile failure, against gcc 3.2.3

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Fernando Padilla 2004-02-03 19:54:58 UTC]

It seems to be complaining about function signatures for the following functions coming out of stdio.h

int getchar()
int getc_unlocked(FILE*)
int getchar_unlocked()
int putchar(int)
int fputc_unlocked(int, FILE*)
int putc_unlocked(int, FILE*)
int putchar_unlocked(int)
__ssize_t getline(char**, size_t*, FILE*)


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Actual Results:

Expected Results:  
it should have compiled.

I bumped into this issue trying to do a fresh install on a new athlon-xp
machine.  But trying to debug the problem I tried to re emerge ttmkfdir on my
old AMD-K6, and hit the same output.  I even tried emerging older versions of
ttmkfdir ( on the new athlon ), but all had the same output ( 3.0.9-r1, 3.0.9,
3.0.4 ).

This is not a big deal for my already installed system, because ttmkfdir is
already compiled.  But it is a big deal for my new system because I can't
install xfree without ttmkfdir; so I have a very fast almost useless machine..
