Bug 153747 – Kvdr doesn't compile with gcc-4.1

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Michael Reißner 2006-11-01 14:20:25 UTC]

Since I updated to the new gcc-4.1, kvdr-0.64 doesn't compile anymore.

A similar problem was reported at http://www.archivum.info/debian-bugs-dist.lists.debian.org/2004-12/msg08726.html for an older kvdr version.

kvdr-0.64-loses-precision.patch - Patch to make kvdr compile with gcc-4.1

Here's a patch, so that there are no more "loses precision" errors during compilation with gcc-4.1.

kvdr-064-r1.ebuild - Ebuild which includes the "loses precision" patch

This ebuild is a slightly modified version of the kvdr-0.64 ebuild, which includes the "losing precision" patch.

The easiest way to use it, is to copy the file into your overlay (/usr/local/portage/media-tv/kvdr/) and the patch into the files folder (/usr/local/portage/media-tv/kvdr/files/). 

ebuild kvdr-0.64-r1.ebuild digest

Than you can use the normal "emerge kvdr".

I don't know if this works with anything but my amd64 system.

Can you please try if the now commited kvdr-0.64-r1 works correct?
It uses another patch I wrote myself, but don't know if it works.

Compiles and runs on my amd64.

Only problem:
~amd64 keyword still missing (see bug 129362)

[Comment 5 Matthias Schwarzott 2006-12-04 05:29:06 UTC]

Closing as it compiles, and another bug is open for amd64-keyword.
