Feel like bug 181822 was just yesterday :-p Adding upstream (unsure, hi Dominique) from previous bug to this one. To be or not to be, remove USE flac or not..
Hi all, Thanks for reporting. I don't know what to do here. I have glib-2.20.2 and gcc-4.3.3-r2 and don't get this problem. I get some warnings but the compilation did succeed and alsaplayer is running fine: FlacPlugin.cpp: In function ‘input_plugin* input_plugin_info()’: FlacPlugin.cpp:332: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’ FlacPlugin.cpp:334: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’ FlacMetadataTag.cpp:113: warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’ Is it some documentation I can read on how to fix this kind of warnings (I am a C/C++ beginner) or can someone provide a patch?
I have glibc-2.10.1 too.
(In reply to comment #5) > I have glibc-2.10.1 too. > It's likely a combination of GCC 4.4.0 and GLIBC 2.10.1 which turns this into fatal error (?) Please see, http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2009/05/24/c-libraries-galore for hints how this problem can be fixed. It's likely just an issue where "const char" should be used instead of just "char" or otherway around, invalid switching between them?
And btw, here is our current patch stack for alsaplayer (for other issues), http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/media-sound/alsaplayer/files/ Might as well apply them while at it? Unless you already have :-)
Created attachment 198503 [details, diff] Please review. Dominique, with this patch it builds and I can play my flacs fine.
Closing.. Please merge our patchset :-)
Well, thank you for the work. I am very busy just now. Among other thing I try to really learn enough C/C++ in order to be able to hack alsaplayer. My biggest problem with this is not the features of the languages but its syntax. It will take some time to go through this. In the maintime, I will try and aplly those patches and do a new AP release.
