Fix build errors by using the latest version of patches from Debian.

This has nothing to do with clang. I also get POSTPROC errors when trying to compile arj with gcc. The attached patch allowed arj to compile.

Austin, I saw you added PATCH keyword... this package has no maintainer, then, feel free to go ahead and fix it directly if you want :)

Thanks for the reminder. I looked closer, that patch is already in tree, but building still fails with clang-3.5. I'll look closer at the failure.

Assigning to myself.

[Comment 5 Austin English (RETIRED) 2016-06-14 22:49:51 UTC]

Looks like there's (at least) one file being miscompiled. The current failure, with arj-3.10.22-r6 is:
POSTPROC v 1.30  [17/01/2003]  Not a part of any binary package!

Patch not found
GNUmakefile:403: recipe for target 'linux-gnu/en/rs/rearj/rearj' failed

replacing linux-gnu/en/rs/rearj/rearj with one compiled with gcc allows that command to succeed.

Same with gcc6

[Comment 7 David Carlos Manuelda 2021-05-13 12:03:17 UTC]

Title needs to be changed because it can be reproduced with clang-12 (2021) so this bug is still valid regardless a bit old.

arj-3.10.22_p26.ebuild

I took a look at cranking this up to the latest Debian patchset at least, but the result wouldn't then work with GCC (13, anyway).

clang-lld_tinderbox has reproduced this issue with version 3.10.22-r8 - Updating summary.
