New description:
Mutt-1.4.2.1i doesn't compile with gcc4. A patch has been added to the
livecd
repository:
http://svn.linuxfromscratch.org/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/trunk/packages/mutt/mutt-1.4.2.1-gcc4_fixes-1.patch?rev=836&root=livecd
This does help compiling Mutt-1.4.2.1i. For the "normal" LFS, patched Mutt
works.
For the UTF-8 book, patched Mutt-1.4.2.1i segfaults at startup if
/etc/Muttrc
contains at least one "macro" line. Reason: ./configure checks for
ncursesw, and
a different code path is used. There was no segfault with gcc-3.4.x.
Upgrading to Mutt-1.5.10i resolves both the compilation failure and the
segfault
issue.
Comment:
I'm going to upgrade to 1.5.10i for the SVN book. Should the patch go in
the Errata for stable? Seems kind of silly since who build LFS SVN then
BLFS stable. What do you think?
