Geda* Will Not Compile On Fedora 32

Hi,

thank you for reporting this. Indeed, I did not know; is there anything I can do to help you get gEDA/gaf back into Fedora?

The errors appear to be correct. There is a case (view != NULL, view->page == NULL) where screen_* are indeed uninitialized. I don't know why this compiles on Debian and Fedore 31, but not on Fedora 32; I guess the checks have become stricter in more recent compiler versions.

You can circumvent the problem by removing `$Werror_maybe_uninitialized_IF_SUPPORTED' from configure.ac. However, ideally, the underlying problems should be fixed. In order to do that, could you please send me the full compiler output?

Roland

Thanks for kind and fast response. I will compile afternoon, cause just now
I am on homework and will need exit to lunch.
gEDA is very important to me, as freedom and as tool.

Hi. I send now file generated by configure and followed by make.

Ps.: if you have sme time, please read this page, about Fedora (and it
seems, Ubuntu, too) *orphaned gEDA*

The last stable version (gEDA/gaf 1.10.0) was released in October, four months before the discussion. How could that have been missed?

Yes, I have tested against 1.10.0 (be stable or git version). I really do
not understand how could they do not maintain gEDA. Strange.

Someone has a .spec example to me, to test it against Fedora?

Hi Morvan,
you may take a look at this github repository:
https://github.com/graahnul-grom/fedora-lepton-eda.
Although it allows one to build Fedora RPM package
of Lepton EDA (which is a fork of the gEDA/gaf suite),
probably, you could adapt the SPEC file for gEDA
without much effort.

Regards,
Dmitry.

Thanks!

Good afternoon. Some news about Fedora 33 (to be publicly available circa October, later) and gEDA?

I updated Fedora and could count, again, on Lepton packages (Thanks, dmn).

This issue has been fixed in commit e7cfde62980bd63c982d9a80e450588734a84c6c.

Hi. Good to know.
