Package: libsmbios Version: 0.13.10-1 Usertags: ftbfs-gcc-4.3 Your package fails to build with GCC 4.3. Version 4.3 has not been released yet but I'm building with a snapshot in order to find errors and give people an advance warning. In GCC 4.3, the C++ header dependencies have been cleaned up. The advantage of this is that programs will compile faster. The downside is that you actually need to directly #include everything you use (but you really should do this anyway, otherwise your program won't work with any compiler other than GCC). There's some more information about this at http://www.cyrius.com/journal/2007/05/10#gcc-4.3-include
You can reproduce this problem with gcc-snapshot from unstable. Note that Red Hat, Novell and Ubuntu have done some work getting packages to build with GCC 4.3 so there might be patches floating around somewhere. I suggest you talk to your upstream. > Automatic build of libsmbios_0.13.10-1 on em64t by sbuild/amd64 0.53 ... > mkdir libraries/memory/.libs > x86_64-linux-gnu-g++ -DPACKAGE_NAME=\"libsmbios\" > -DPACKAGE_TARNAME=\"libsmbios\" -DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT=\"\" > -DPACKAGE=\"libsmbios\" -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 -DHAVE_SYS_TYPES_H=1 > -DHAVE_SYS_STAT_H=1 -DHAVE_STDLIB_H=1 -DHAVE_STRING_H=1 -DHAVE_MEMORY_H=1 > -DHAVE_STRINGS_H=1 -DHAVE_INTTYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_STDINT_H=1 -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 > -DHAVE_DLFCN_H=1 -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 -DHAVE_LIBINTL_H=1 -DHAVE_LIMITS_H=1 > -DHAVE_STDLIB_H=1 -DHAVE_STRING_H=1 -DHAVE_SYS_FILE_H=1 -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 > -DHAVE__BOOL=1 -DHAVE_STDBOOL_H=1 -DHAVE_PTRDIFF_T=1 -DHAVE_STDLIB_H=1 > -DHAVE_MALLOC=1 -DHAVE_STDLIB_H=1 -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 -DHAVE_GETPAGESIZE=1 > -DHAVE_MMAP=1 -DHAVE_GETPAGESIZE=1 -DHAVE_MEMMOVE=1 -DHAVE_MEMSET=1 > -DHAVE_MUNMAP=1 -DHAVE_STRERROR=1 -DHAVE_STRNDUP=1 -DHAVE_STRTOL=1 > -DHAVE_STRTOUL=1 -DVERSION=\"0.13.10\" -DPACKAGE_VERSION=\"0.13.10\" > "-DPACKAGE_STRING=\"libsmbios 0.13.10\"" -I. -I. -I./include -I./include > -I./libraries/common -I./libraries/common -g -O2 -MT > libraries/memory/libraries_libsmbios_la-Memory.lo -MD -MP -MF > libraries/memory/.deps/libraries_libsmbios_la-Memory.Tpo -c > libraries/memory/Memory.cpp -fPIC -DPIC -o > libraries/memory/.libs/libraries_libsmbios_la-Memory.o > libraries/memory/Memory.cpp: In constructor > 'memory::MemoryFile::MemoryFile(std::string)': > libraries/memory/Memory.cpp:117: error: 'strerror' was not declared in this > scope > libraries/memory/Memory.cpp: In member function 'virtual void > memory::MemoryFile::fillBuffer(u8*, u64, unsigned int) const': > libraries/memory/Memory.cpp:156: error: 'strerror' was not declared in this > scope > libraries/memory/Memory.cpp:166: error: 'strerror' was not declared in this > scope > libraries/memory/Memory.cpp:184: error: 'strerror' was not declared in this > scope > libraries/memory/Memory.cpp: In member function 'virtual void > memory::MemoryFile::putByte(u64, u8) const': > libraries/memory/Memory.cpp:210: error: 'strerror' was not declared in this > scope > libraries/memory/Memory.cpp:220: error: 'strerror' was not declared in this > scope > libraries/memory/Memory.cpp:235: error: 'strerror' was not declared in this > scope > make[2]: *** [libraries/memory/libraries_libsmbios_la-Memory.lo] Error 1 > make[2]: Leaving directory `/build/tbm/libsmbios-0.13.10' -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/
