[gentoo-dev] GCC-3.1/KDE 3.0.1

[Lars Pechan <lars.pechan@paradise.net.nz>]

Hello,
I'd just thought I'd post a brief mentioning of a couple of problems I ran 
into trying to build KDE 3.0.1 on a gcc-3.1 system. 

Sorry for the lack of detail but I don't have access to the build system at 
the moment. If necessary, I can dig out the details and file these as bugs.

1) The fam-oss library doesn't build. This is the File Alteration Monitor from 
SGI used by both KDE and Gnome I believe. The problem relates to a const 
member of a class not getting initialized (IIRC Scheduler.c++ lines 37 and 
37). 


2) HTDig (required by kdevelop) doesn't build. It craps out during configure 
complaining about 
missing libstdc++. I had a quick look and it looks for <fstream.h> to trigger 
whether there's a c++ library in place or not. That file does exist but 
possibly in a directory that isn't on the default search path. C++ standards 
call for the header to be called <fstream> and there is indeed an <fstream> 
in the /usr/include/g++-3.1/libstdc++ or thereabouts ;-).

I'm a bit surprised I haven't seen anyone else mentioning this? There seems to 
be lots of people building gcc-3.1-systems...
