Bug 33158 – compiling svgalib 1.4.3-r4 under GCC 3.3.2-r2

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 23515
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Darryl Bleau 2003-11-10 11:06:10 UTC]

As is, svgalib fails out with lots of "... does not give a valid preprocessing token" when attempted to compile under GCC 3.3.2-r2.

getint patch for svgalib 1.4.3

Need to apply attached patch to get svgalib-1.4.3-r4 to compile under GCC
3.3.2-r2. I've tried it in an overlay and it will compile fine after the
patch
is applied.

new svgalib ebuild

I created a new ebuild for svgalib with the patch, not sure if this requires
a
version bump but I called it -r5. Forgive me if I did something wrong I'm
new
to this.

Why do you use svgalib-1.4.3 with gcc-3.3.2 ?  I would assume (and thus why
I only fixed the 1.9.17 ebuilds for gcc-3.3) that you would also use unstable
version of svgalib ???

[Comment 4 Darryl Bleau 2003-11-17 11:39:39 UTC]

I only added gcc-3.3 to my portage overlay, (and a few other apps, epiphany, anjuta) and bison as well as gcc 3.3. needed new bison. I then proceeded to recompile the entire system under 3.3, so using default portage tree, svgalib-1.4.3 is what it tried to install.

I could run svgalib 1.9.17, but I was staying with the otherwize 'stable' portage tree packages, and fixing 1.4.3 wasn't that hard.

If you don't want to put the patch in portage it doesn't matter to me, I was trying to be helpful for anyone else who might do what I did.
