Hi all, As you might have heard already, GCC 4.6 introduced a number of new warnings. As we build the package for Debian with -Werror turned on, these would cause build failures. If you agree that these warnings should be addressed, it would be nice if you could fix them upstream. Otherwise I will introduce Debian-specific patches to work around them. The best way to find all of them is take a look at the build log at http://people.debian.org/~doko/tmp/werror/ppl_0.11.2-3_lsid64.buildlog and search for -Wunused. Many of the warnings relate to ppl.hh, hence are easily fixed by changing the code it is generated from. Only a few others concern the tests. Thanks a lot, Michael PS.: If someone could afterwards tell me about the git commit ids that would makes things even easier :-) ----- Forwarded message from Matthias Klose <doko@debian.org> ----- Date: Tue, 03 May 2011 10:34:10 +0000 From: Matthias Klose <doko@debian.org> To: maintonly@bugs.debian.org Subject: Bug#625417: ppl: ftbfs with gcc-4.6 -Werror Reply-To: Matthias Klose <doko@debian.org>, 625417-maintonly@bugs.debian.org Package: ppl Version: 0.11.2-3 Severity: important Tags: wheezy sid User: debian-gcc@lists.debian.org Usertags: ftbfs-gcc-4.6 ftbfs-werror This package builds with -Werror, and GCC 4.6 triggers new warnings which will make the package fail to build. Currently a Debian patch just passes -Wno-error=unused-but-set-variable and -Wno-error=unused-but-set-parameter to avoid build failures, but this patch will be reverted with the GCC 4.6.1 release, and the severity of the report will be raised. The full build log can be found at: http://people.debian.org/~doko/tmp/werror/ppl_0.11.2-3_lsid64.buildlog The last lines of the build log are at the end of this report. ----- End forwarded message -----
