Package: octave2.1 Version: 1:2.1.73-19 User: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Usertags: ftbfs-gcc-4.4 Tags: patch
Your package fails to build with the upcoming GCC 4.4. Version 4.4 has not been released yet but I'm building with a snapshot in order to find errors and give people an advance warning. GCC 4.4 cleaned up some more C++ headers. You always have to #include headers directly and cannot rely for things to be included indirectly. You can reproduce this problem with gcc-snapshot from unstable. > Automatic build of octave2.1_1:2.1.73-19 on em64t by sbuild/amd64 0.53 ... > make[4]: Leaving directory `/build/tbm/octave2.1-2.1.73/scripts/time' > g++ -O2 -o gethelp gethelp.cc > gethelp.cc: In function 'std::string extract_help_text()': > gethelp.cc:58: error: 'EOF' was not declared in this scope > make[3]: *** [gethelp] Error 1 After fixing this, the build also fails with the following (as does octave3.0): make[2]: Entering directory `/home/tbm/octave2.1-2.1.73/src' g++ -I. -I.. -I../liboctave -I../src -I../libcruft/misc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -Wall -W -Wshadow -g -O2 -rdynamic \ -L.. -fPIC -o octave \ main.o \ -L../liboctave -L../libcruft -L../src -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/lib/octave-2.1.73 \ -loctinterp -loctave -lcruft \ -llapackgf-3 -lblas-3gf -lfftw3 -lreadline -lncurses -ldl -lhdf5 -lz -lm -L/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.3.2 -L/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.3.2/../../../../lib -L/lib/../lib -L/usr/lib/../lib -L/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.3.2/../../.. -lhdf5 -lz -lgfortranbegin -lgfortran -lm ../src/liboctinterp.so: undefined reference to `std::ctype<char>::_M_widen_init() const' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [octave] Error 1 --- scripts/gethelp.cc~ 2008-11-11 21:07:53.000000000 +0000 +++ scripts/gethelp.cc 2008-11-11 21:07:58.000000000 +0000 @@ -2,6 +2,7 @@ #define __USE_STD_IOSTREAM #endif +#include <cstdio> #include <string> #include <iostream> -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
