Hi Shaun, as you know the Debian Med team has packaged plink for Debian. Recently we received a bug report that the package does not build when using gcc 4.7 and we were working on a patch to solve this. You can find the patch here:
http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-med/trunk/packages/plink/trunk/debian/patches/gcc-4.7.patch?view=markup I found this solution by the help of some people on debian-mentors list but I want to issue a BIG WARNING: If you look at the patch at the given URL in line 67 I admit I was just wild guessing what "j" you are really meaning. To my understanding this is very bad coding style and I would strongly recommend to strictly use different variables. I would be really happy if you would confirm that my wild guess was right (or please correct me if I was wrong) because my C coding knowledge is restricted to pure ANSII C and C++ looks sometimes quite magical to me. BTW, people at debian-mentors criticised the amount of warnings when using the -Wall option which unreveals a real lot of warnings which are hard to parse and some more strict following of coding guidelines might help here. Kind regards and thanks for providing plink as Free Software Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-med-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
