Bug#262717: gcc-2.95: checking for va_list assignment copy... configure: error: no
Package: gcc-2.95
Version: 1:2.95.4-22
Severity: normal
Trying to build a SE-Linux dpkg package with gcc-2.95 and this script:
===========================================
#!/bin/sh -x
cd $HOME/russellpackages/dpkg/ && \
rm -rf * && \
curl -f -O http://selinux.lemuria.org/newselinux/dpkg/dpkg_1.10.22.orig.tar.gz && \
curl -f -O http://selinux.lemuria.org/newselinux/dpkg/dpkg_1.10.22-se1.diff.gz && \
tar -xzvf *\.tar.gz && \
cd dpkg-1.10.22/ && \
cp ../dpkg_1.10.22-se1.diff.gz . && \
gzip -cd dpkg_1.10.22-se1.diff.gz | patch -p1 && \
chmod +x debian/rules && \
autoconf && \
fakeroot debian/rules binary
=================================================
ends like this:
----------------------------------------------------
checking for initscr in -lncurses... yes
checking if TIOCNOTTY is defined in sys/ioctl.h... yes
checking for va_copy... no
checking for va_list assignment copy... configure: error: no
make: *** [/home/shorty/russellpackages/dpkg/dpkg-1.10.22/build/configure-stamp] Error 1
----------------------------------------------------
Google hints that
"gcc build has failed to install varargs.h"
<http://www.uclibc.org/lists/uclibc/2003-February/005694.html>
$ locate varargs.h
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-linux/2.95.4/include/varargs.h
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-linux/3.0.4/include/varargs.h
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-linux/3.3.4/include/varargs.h
/usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-linux/3.4.1/include/varargs.h
Trying to build the package with the mentioned script above plus gcc-3.3
or gcc-3.0 or gcc-3.4 each time successfully builds these packages:
dpkg-dev_1.10.22-se1_all.deb
dpkg-doc_1.10.22-se1_all.deb
dpkg_1.10.22-se1_powerpc.deb
dselect_1.10.22-se1_powerpc.deb
