Hi!
I'm worrying about the "sanity" of my system. It's basically debian
Slink with some goodies from potato: glibc2 being the most important.
I run kernel 2.2.14 - not from debian, from tar.gz - and sometimes,
when I try to compile things, everything works fine. At other times,
the compiler barfs up loads of errors like:
In file included from /usr/include/stdio.h:57,
from mail.c:38:
/usr/include/libio.h:263: parse error before `size_t'
/usr/include/libio.h:272: parse error before `size_t'
/usr/include/libio.h:368: parse error before `_IO_sgetn'
/usr/include/libio.h:368: parse error before `size_t'
/usr/include/libio.h:368: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
In file included from mail.c:38:
/usr/include/stdio.h:237: parse error before `size_t'
/usr/include/stdio.h:243: parse error before `size_t'
/usr/include/stdio.h:273: parse error before `size_t'
/usr/include/stdio.h:277: parse error before `size_t'
/usr/include/stdio.h:281: parse error before `size_t'
/usr/include/stdio.h:446: parse error before `fread'
....
Among the things I can compile are the kernel, bttv, enlightenment,
imlib etc., the Gimp, xawtv, and gnupg. The things that don't work are
gtk-perl, tkrat, seahorse, balsa, and spruce among others. I tried
taking /usr/local/lib out of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but that didn't work.
My bf thinks maybe it's because people #define things that don't work
with.
Has anyone had any problem like this? Can you tell me what's wrong? And
yes, I probably should update to a full potato, but bandwidth is
expensive in Germany, and I'd have to be online for a few days, I
think... waiting for potato to be released on CD before an upgrade.
Thanks for any help!
Britta
