Comment 1 Justin Lecher (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-04-15 16:06:46 UTC
Seems to be gcc-4.6 related

oct-alloc.cc:32:26: error: ‘size_t’ was not declared in this scope
Comment 2 Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-04-15 16:11:47 UTC
Indeed it is, thanks for noticing.

gcc-4.6 patch

(This patch should work for any gcc.)

Fix 1: the aforementioned missing size_t.  I hate it when people don't include stddef.h when they should.
Fix 2: fixed the obscure abs() template definition (the error message said something about removing the 'inline' keyword in the macro, which I didn't understand, but it was fine to just remove the macro and rely on the template)

Here's the short ebuild change:

Ha, I just noticed this:
http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=32387

Basically the same but I liked my second fix better :)

I included the ebuild patch before precisely because I hate editing ebuilds.
Comment 6 Markus Peloquin 2011-05-25 14:20:38 UTC
I should mention that when it gets into the doc/interpreter directory in the install phase, it sometimes fails.  Maybe a parallel build issue?  I have MAKEOPTS=-j5
Comment 7 Sébastien Fabbro (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-06-09 21:59:32 UTC
All fixed. Thanks.
