Please advise.
The error message "expected ',' or '...' before 'string'" points to a problem with the 'restrict' keyword. An appropriate definition of 'restrict' should be available in the gnulib- generated config.h file. * Can you verify that ddlineedit.moc.cpp starts with a '#include <config.h>' statement? [1] * Can you show the block of preprocessor statements in <config.h> that defines 'restrict'? * Can you show the command that is being executed (make V=1)? A symbolic placeholder like 'CXX' is useless for debugging a compilation failure. * What are the C compiler and C++ compiler versions that you use in this build?
