well, looking at the original bug report, it really says "cc -g -O2" more details are in http://people.debian.org/~lucas/logs/2008/04/13/mplayer_1.0~rc2-10_sid32-gcc43.buildlog > Maybe this code doesn't build with -O2 ? This is exactly that. OK, thanks everyone, I think we found what is causing the build failure. In particular, thanks to lucas for telling me about this new "feature" of dpkg-buildpackage . I will study how to stop the dpkg-buildpackage CFLAGS from creeping down to the building of mplayer. a.
