Package: swig Version: 1.3.27-1 Severity: important Justification: causes FTBFS of unrelated software (subversion)
swig has a builtin C preprocessor which apparently is doing something wrong when a .i file includes <apr-0/apr.h> from libapr0-dev: $ cat apr.c #include <apr.h> $ gcc -c -I/usr/include/apr-0 apr.c $ gcc -c -ansi -I/usr/include/apr-0 apr.c In file included from apr.c:1: /usr/include/apr-0/apr.h:400:2: error: #error no decision has been made on APR_PATH_MAX for your platform $ gcc -c -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -I/usr/include/apr-0 apr.c $ cat apr.i %include apr.h $ swig -python -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -I/usr/include/apr-0 apr.i /usr/include/apr-0/apr.h:400: Error: no decision has been made on APR_PATH_MAX for your platform Of course, there is one horrible workaround: $ swig -python -DPATH_MAX=4096 -I/usr/include/apr-0 apr.i *** No module name specified using %module or -module. I am guessing that this bug has always been around, but was hidden prior to swig 1.3.27 because older swig ignored the "#error" directive. ------------------------------------------------------------ debian: sid i386 gcc-4.0: 4.0.2-4 libc6-dev: 2.3.5-8.1 libapr0-dev: 2.0.55-3
