Can't compile fsviewer 0.2.3 source deb on PowerPC
I noticed that the version of fsviewer (0.2.2) available for
PowerPC was fairly old, 0.2.3 has been available for more than 6
months now. So I decided to compile the source deb myself by
unfortunately I got the following error at the end:
gcc -g -O2 -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -o fsviewer FSViewer.o files.o FSFileBrowser.o list.o misc.o prop.o timestampWidget.o attribsInspector.o editInspector.o exeInspector.o extnInspector.o iconInspector.o viewInspector.o FSBrowser.o FSPanel.o FSUtils.o FSMenu.o FSFileView.o FSInspector.o magic.o DnD.o FSPathView.o xmodifier.o FSFinder.o FSFileButton.o FSMCList.o FSPrefs.o -Lregexp -lregx -lnsl -lPropList -lWINGs -lWMaker -lXmu -lwraster -ltiff -lXpm -lpng -lz -ljpeg -lungif -lXext -lX11 -lm

I remember reading the gcc 2.95 had problems with
va_arg_type_violation before. Can I assume that the autobuilder
choked on the same error, and that this is why we only have the old
version of fsviewer? Any way to get around this? I'm running:
ii gcc 2.95.2-3 The GNU C compiler.
Thanks,
