[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#727045: Dynare: FTBFS, automake warnings treated as errors.
Package: dynare
Version: 4.3.3-4
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
While working on raspbian I discovered that dynare failed to build
because it was treating warnings as errors.
http://buildd.raspbian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=dynare&arch=armhf&ver=4.3.3-4&stamp=1382380126
I was able to reproduce this in debian sid so it's not raspbian specific.
A patch that "fixes" this by removing the -werror in all configure,ac
files (removing it from just the top level one proved insufficient) is
attatched but ideally someone should look at the root cause.
