For several weeks building KDEPIM from GIT "origin/KDE/4.7" has
failed with this error:
/usr/GIT/KDE/kdepim/messagecomposer/akonadisender.cpp:138: error:
reference to 'Message' is ambiguous
However the tag v4.7.3 builds OK, indicating that the source was
broken since release 4.7.3 was tagged. Now, release 4.7.4 has been
tagged and it will not build.
Have you tried git bisect-ing the problem?
Yes, I have it down to the file and the changes in that file that broke
it.
I upgraded GCC and now it builds -- my compiler was getting a bit old
although it isn't really safe to install the newest version either.
But, that doesn't establish whether it was illegal code or not since the
GCC compilers will often compile code that isn't legal.
You know how to frustrate a person, don't you? =:^( You mention the old
compiler that was broken with the code was a bit old, and that the new
one isn't broken, but not a hint to be seen about what the actual version
was of either one!<grr!>
I was still using 4.4.4 and have now upgraded to 4.5 (BLFS was up to
4.5.1). I suppose that I could upgrade to 4.5.3 now that I have gone
through a major problem with upgrading ppl, cloog, gmp, mpfr, & mpc --
they need to be built with the current compiler and the compiler needs
to be be built with the current build -- not a circular dependency, but
still circular.
