Hello

Well, for telling truth, I agree it's small, or seem to be small, but in
my opinion it works quite nice (with medium-large archives) and can be
usefull. I'm not convinced if it would work well in group of
other tools (as Eduard Bloch has written) because it requires a specific
alias for tar and manpage read ;) despite its simplicity.

Re: Bug#303725: specter: FTBFS (amd64/gcc-4.0): syntax error before '{' token

It's not so easy. It was done that way to allow specter compile on gcc
2.95. This patch makes it impossible, so I hesitate to apply it.
Moreover fourth version of gcc is really experimental, and if I had to
choose specter compiling on 4 or 2.95 version I would choose 2.95.
For telling truth I don't know what to do now; upstream doesn't aprove
this patch and won't include it in 1.4pre2 version of specter.
I consider setting ,,wontfix'' tag.
What do You think about that ?

Best regards,
 Grzegorz ,,Verdan'' Bizon

It's done, new patch has been written, that provide successful
compilation on gcc-2.95 and gcc-4.0.
specter package with new patch applied will be uploaded afer
official 1.4pre1 release, which is coming soon.
