Hi. I hope this isn't a FAQ. If it is, I haven't been able to find the answer anywhere. I am quite prepared to rtfm as long as you tell me which fm to read.
Anyway, my problem is this: when I try to compile a program, and it's mostly gnome programs that do this, I get copious error messages like this: /usr/include/bits/string2.h:954: parse error before `__strspn_c3' /usr/include/bits/string2.h: In function `__strspn_c3': /usr/include/bits/string2.h:956: syntax error before `__result' /usr/include/bits/string2.h:958: `__result' undeclared (first use in this function) /usr/include/bits/string2.h: In function `__strpbrk_c2': /usr/include/bits/string2.h:991: `size_t' undeclared (first use in this function) /usr/include/bits/string2.h:991: parse error before `__s' /usr/include/bits/string2.h: In function `__strpbrk_c3': /usr/include/bits/string2.h:1004: `size_t' undeclared (first use in this function) /usr/include/bits/string2.h:1004: parse error before `__s' /usr/include/bits/string2.h: In function `__strsep_g': /usr/include/bits/string2.h:1171: `size_t' undeclared (first use in this function) /usr/include/bits/string2.h:1171: parse error before `const' /usr/include/bits/string2.h:1171: parse error before `const' /usr/include/bits/string2.h:1171: parse error before `)' They just go on and on; this is just a small example. Interestingly, when I typed in everything that the Makefile wanted to do except -I/usr/include everything compiled beautifully. This is really starting to bug me. For what it's worth, I have a completely up to the minute unstable distribution. Thanks for any help, Chris Gray -- The reason that every major university maintains a department of mathematics is that it's cheaper than institutionalizing all those people.
