Description f5d8fd51ed1e804c9e8d0357e8614e0493b06e96 2004-08-11 08:50:12 UTC

dev-util/log4c-1.0.11.ebuild fails to build with gcc 3.4.1,
removing the --enable-test from the econf line fixes the issue and it installs just fine

I might look into the lines of code where it breaks and look if it's easy fixable

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. get gcc-3.4.1
2. try to emerge log4c-1.0.11
3. compile fails somewhere in the test part

log4c_1.0.11_test.patch

ok, I have looked at the mess a bit... looks like gg 3.4.1 get confused by some
of the #define preprocessor-magic-stuff...

but I have found an easy way to get it to compile just fine anyway...

just changing the log-level of some of the tests from "trace" to "info" and it
will compile just fine (the trace level uses the bad magick)

Mine compiled fine with gcc-3.3 in the test part. It just failed when I ran the tests. I've applied your patch anyway. Thankyou. I'm going to email the author this patch along with the other on your behalf. ok?

Thanks for the bug report.
