My commands.h file defines edit_fill_cmd_callback(...) et alia with
three parameters. It's CVS version is 1.26, dated  Mar 24 2000 09:54
checked in by Sven.

1)  You've (somehow) obtained an out-of-date header ?
2)  A (somehow) out-of-date header was in your distribution (Came from where?)
3) You have multiple commands.h in different directories, and a earlier version
is being found first (There are include guards bracketing the header contents, so
the first one found rules, and subsequent ones silently ignored).

If you can, run the compiler preprocessor only and dump the output to file
(on SGI MIPS compilers this is -E -- check your compiler documentation)
This may give a flag where the compiler is finding the header.

Be good, be well

CVS gimp (updated 27/apr/2000) won't compile on my box.  It complains:

Here's what I have...

commands.c==
250: void
251: edit_fill_cmd_callback (GtkWidget *widget,
252:gpointer   callback_data,
253:guint  callback_action)
254: {

commands.h==
19: void edit_fill_cmd_callback (GtkWidget *, gpointer);

commands.c==
1063: void
1064: tools_select_cmd_callback (GtkWidget *widget,
1065:  gpointer   callback_data,
1066:  guint  callback_action)
1067: {

commands.h==
87: void tools_select_cmd_callback (GtkWidget *, gpointer);

commands.c==
1099: void
1100: filters_repeat_cmd_callback (GtkWidget *widget,
1101:gpointer   callback_data,
1102:guint  callback_action)
1103: {

commands.h==
88: void filters_repeat_cmd_callback (GtkWidget *, gpointer);

It looks like the header file only defines two arguments in the
prototype, but the actual function has three.  How is it possible that
the gimp compiles for other people and not for me?
