Source: gyoto Version: 1.0.1-2 Severity: serious Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
Builds of gyoto for 32-bit architectures such as i386 have been failing: In file included from Photon.C:26:0: ../include/GyotoWorldline.h:65:37: error: no matches converting function '_maxiter' to type 'Gyoto::Property::set_unsigned_long_t {aka void (class Gyoto::Object::*)(long unsigned int)}' GYOTO_PROPERTY_SIZE_T(c, MaxIter, _maxiter) \ ^ ../include/GyotoProperty.h:117:50: note: in definition of macro 'GYOTO_PROPERTY_UNSIGNED_LONG' (Gyoto::Property::set_unsigned_long_t)&class::fname, \ ^ ../include/GyotoWorldline.h:127:3: note: in expansion of macro 'GYOTO_WORLDLINE_PROPERTIES' GYOTO_WORLDLINE_PROPERTIES(c) \ ^ Photon.C:46:1: note: in expansion of macro 'GYOTO_WORLDLINE_PROPERTY_END' GYOTO_WORLDLINE_PROPERTY_END(Photon, Object::properties) ^ In file included from ../include/GyotoPhoton.h:41:0, from Photon.C:22: ../include/GyotoWorldline.h:153:10: note: candidates are: size_t Gyoto::Photon::_maxiter() const size_t _maxiter () const ; \ ^ ../include/GyotoPhoton.h:99:3: note: in expansion of macro 'GYOTO_WORLDLINE' GYOTO_WORLDLINE; ^ ../include/GyotoWorldline.h:152:8: note: void Gyoto::Photon::_maxiter(size_t) void _maxiter (size_t miter) ; \ ^ ../include/GyotoPhoton.h:99:3: note: in expansion of macro 'GYOTO_WORLDLINE' GYOTO_WORLDLINE; ^ The problem appears to be that GyotoProperty.h expects size_t to be formally equivalent to unsigned long. This equivalence fully holds on 64-bit architectures, but on 32-bit Debian architectures, size_t is technically unsigned int, which is formally distinct from unsigned long even if it has the same representation and range of values. I would suggest (unconditionally) extending Gyoto::Property with get_size_t and and set_size_t methods, and redefining GYOTO_PROPERTY_SIZE_T accordingly. Could you please take a look?
