I experience a compilation breakage when compiling GnuCash 1.6.8 with gcc 3.2.1 (r6). I have a recently installed 1.4.rc2 system with all installed packages up to date. The error printed is attached below. No errors were reported previous to this one (as far as I could see): --- START LISTING --- gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I./calculation -I./engine -I./guile -I./register -O3 -mcpu=i686 -march=i686 -funroll-loops -frerun-cse-after-loop -frerun-loop-opt -pipe -Wall -Wunused -Wall -Wno-unused -Werror-implicit-function-declaration -I/usr/include/gtk-1.2 -I/usr/include/glib-1.2 -I/usr/lib/glib/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/include/gnome-1.0 -DNEED_GNOMESUPPORT_H -I/usr/lib/gnome-libs/include -I/usr/include/orbit-1.0 -I/usr/include -c SplitLedger.c SplitLedger.c: In function `gnc_find_split_in_reg_by_memo': SplitLedger.c:5164: Internal compiler error in verify_local_live_at_start, at flow.c:586 Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source if appropriate.

ERROR: app-office/gnucash-1.6.8 failed. !!! Function src_compile, Line 63, Exitcode 2 !!! (no error message) --- END LISTING --- The probable reason for the breakage are my optimization settings: CFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=i686 -march=i686 -funroll-loops -frerun-cse-after-loop -frerun-loop-opt -pipe" When removing all the -fxxx settings and using -O2 the compilation works: CFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=i686 -march=i686 -pipe" I suspect that the gnucash ebuild should be modified to filter out the offending optimization setting(s) (whichever that may be). Perhaps the gcc folks should also be informed about the error (if they support -O3 optimizations).
Leonardo: use the flag-o-matic to change and remove unwanted flags
added some more filter magic, should be safer now.
Typo in fix from comment #3; the ebuild in portage has a syntax error on line 38: filter-flag "-O3" "-O2" needs to be filter-flags "-O3" "-O2" I'm not sure if I should reopen this bug (bugzilla doesn't seem to let me), or just rely on Martin Holzer to change the ebuild. P.S., this typo was propogated to the gnucash-1.8.x ebuilds proposed in another bug#
fixed in cvs thx
