• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Anders Pettersson 2004-08-27 06:06:45 UTC]

First bug so go easy on me =)
I'm trying to compile gnome-network and it neads guile-1.4.1 and this is what I get when i try to compile guile:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -I.. -I./.. -march=pentium4 -O1 -pipe -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -c net_db.c -MT net_db.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/net_db.TPlo  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/net_db.lo
net_db.c:85: error: conflicting types for 'inet_aton'
/usr/include/arpa/inet.h:74: error: previous declaration of 'inet_aton' was herenet_db.c:85: error: conflicting types for 'inet_aton'
/usr/include/arpa/inet.h:74: error: previous declaration of 'inet_aton' was heremake[2]: *** [net_db.lo] Error 1

make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/guile-1.4.1/work/guile-1.4.1/libguile'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

!!! ERROR: dev-util/guile-1.4.1 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 31, Exitcode 2
!!! Compilation failed

as you can see i'm using -O1 as my cflag so thts not the problem, and i emerge synced only moments before...

I olso tried to mask guile-1.4.1 in /etc/portage/package.mask but gnome-network dident like that...

Reproducible: Always

1. emerge =dev-utils/guile-1.4.1

According to 
http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/docs/faq/guile-faq.html#Building%20guile-1.4%20gives%20a%20previous%20declaration%20of%20inet_aton%20error%3f
the workaround is to comment out the offending code, that is libguile/net_db.c, line 85 I'm trying this now.

[Comment 2 Yi Quang (RETIRED) 2004-09-08 23:37:53 UTC]

I'm assuming this is another gcc-3.4 issue, patches are welcome. 

[Comment 3 Aristotle Allen 2004-09-25 16:10:55 UTC]

he solution is to modify 

gnome-network-1.0.2-r1.ebuild'

change the line :
    =dev-util/guile-1.4*

to:
    >=dev-util/guile-1.4*

[Comment 4 foser (RETIRED) 2004-10-09 05:15:08 UTC]

@ comment 3 : thats a workaround not a solution.

it's probably best to go with comment #1

[Comment 5 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2004-10-17 15:19:26 UTC]

fixed for both 1.4*, removed doa net_db.c from filesdir as well.
