Description William Keaney 2007-01-10 22:59:59 UTC 
When emerging media-gfx/pstoedit-3.42 with media-libs/ming-0.2a-r3 installed, compiling fails with
"/usr/include/mingpp.h: In member function 'void SWFText::addString(const char*, float*)':
/usr/include/mingpp.h:631: error: cannot convert 'float*' to 'int*' for argument '3' to 'void SWFText_addString(void*, const char*, int*)'
make[1]: *** [drvswf.lo] Error 1 "

Downgrading media-libs/ming to 0.2a-r2 allows pstoedit to compile and install successfully.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge media-libs/ming-0.2a-r3
2. emerge media-gfx/pstoedit-3.42
3. 

Actual Results:  
media-gfx/pstoedit fails to compile, citing a problem with /usr/include/mingpp.h

Expected Results:  
pstoedit should compile successfully.

This has been discussed at http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-3834210.html#3834210 .  There are 3 users in addition to myself who have confirmed this behavior.
