Justification: fails to build from source
Hi, Alastair, me again. ;-)
Builds of odb-api for 32-bit architectures such as i386 have been
failing:
/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/eckit/tests/config/test_configuration.cc:63:60: error:
conversion from 'std::vector<long unsigned int>' to non-scalar type
'std::vector<unsigned int>' requested
std::vector<size_t> value_arr_size_t = make_vector(6ul,7ul);
On Debian's 32-bit architectures, size_t is technically unsigned int
rather than unsigned long; although the two types are de facto
equivalent, the compiler treats them as formally distinct.
(Meanwhile, 64-bit architectures really do use unsigned long for
size_t, since unsigned int would be too narrow there.) Alas, there is
no shorthand notation for marking literals as whatever type size_t
turns out to be, so my recommendation would be to put in casts.
Could you please take a look?
Thanks!
