Bug#203303: This is not grave



Package: libc6-dev
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-10
Severity: normal
Followup-For: Bug #203303

It looks like the problem is that these various KDE programs are using
-ansi, and -ansi implies -fno-asm.  This in itself wouldn't be the
problem, but:
           The -ansi option does not cause non-ISO programs to be
           rejected gratuitously.  For that, -pedantic is required 
           in addition to -ansi.
- taken from the FM.

It appears that at least my program is building fine on many arches that
it previously failed on once I removed the -ansi and -pedantic lines.  I
have not yet tested kdemultimedia.

So, I would say that while it would be great if the linux-kernel-headers
package could provide ansi compliant headers, I realize that that will
not be trivial to implement, and as there appears to be a functional
workaround, I suggest downgrading to important or normal.  If you agree,
please do so.  I will cc: Chris on this as well, so he knows that there
are wokrarounds at least.
