Bug 180404 – x11-base/x11-drm-20060608 failed to build - size of array 'type name' is negative

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 165553
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Mark Kirkwood 2007-05-31 02:09:19 UTC]

Performed emerge -NDu world yesterday and this module would not build.

Specifically we are building with USE_FLAGS :

[ebuild   R   ] x11-base/x11-drm-20060608  VIDEO_CARDS="mach64* r128* radeon*"

Topmost error is:
CC [M]  /var/tmp/portage/x11-base/x11-drm-20060608/work/drm/linux-core/drm_stub.o
/var/tmp/portage/x11-base/x11-drm-20060608/work/drm/linux-core/drm_stub.c:51: error: size of array 'type name' is negative



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1/ set VIDEO_CARDS="mach64* r128* radeon*"
2/ emerge -NDu

Actual Results:  
C [M]  /var/tmp/portage/x11-base/x11-drm-20060608/work/drm/linux-core/drm_stub.o
/var/tmp/portage/x11-base/x11-drm-20060608/work/drm/linux-core/drm_stub.c:51: error: size of array 'type name' is negative

Expected Results:  
compile sucessfully!

This is possibly due to drm module bing too old for Xorg 7.2 (thanks Google...).

Try with 20070314 (or preferably use the in-kernel stuff instead).
