I'm using RPM to simplify installation and can't build pvfs-2.6.2 on FC5 using the default RPM compiler build flags which include "- Werror" on FC5.

This breaks the configure test for HAVE_TXNID_PARAMETER_TO_DB_OPEN because the parameters are used uninitialized. The test fails silently but the system installed BDB does require the TXNID parameter which breaks the subsequent build:


Workaround: overwrite default compiler flags.

Fix: initialize variables in pvfs-2.6.2/maint/config/bdb.m4 HAVE_TXNID_PARAMETER_TO_DB_OPEN macro.


We have nightly tests running on FC6...odd that it doesn't use - Werror but FC5 does. I've committed these fixes to the 2.6 branch and attached a patch of the changes. They seem to work on FC6, but then so does the code without the patch. If you get a chance, let me know how the patch goes on FC5.



Hmmm. Don't see patch attached and am reluctant to use CVS. Doesn't seem to be available via http://www.beowulf-underground.org/pipermail/pvfs2-developers/2007-January/003101.html either.

Thanks,
Simon
