Description cyshei 2019-05-06 05:28:27 UTC
NeoVim compiles fine under GCC 9, but it contains a bug exposed by GCC 9.  A simple way to reproduce it is to install the YouCompleteMe plugin -- then, upon starting NeoVim, you'll get an error printed out.

NeoVim bug: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/9859

Debian GCC 9 bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=925785

Patch to fix: https://github.com/neovim/neovim/commit/d5fd0732e0709c51b28191f6d8425cc924a94560.patch

I've dropped the patch in my /etc/portage/patches and verified that things are now working correctly with GCC 9.

This can also be resolved by bumping neovim to the latest stable release (0.3.5).
