Description Marcin Juszkiewicz 2015-09-03 12:00:42 UTC

Description of problem:

pdfedit fails to build from source on aarch64 because it is using -posix switch. It works fine on primary architectures but on aarch64 g++ does not know that switch:

13:53 hrw@pinkiepie-rawhide:puchatek-del$ g++ hello.cc -posix
g++: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-posix’

13:55 hrw@puchatek:del$ g++ -posix hello.cc
13:58 hrw@puchatek:del$ 

pinkiepie is aarch64, puchatek is x86-64. Both have same version of g++ installed:

13:58 hrw@puchatek:del$ g++ --version
g++ (GCC) 5.1.1 20150618 (Red Hat 5.1.1-4)
13:55 hrw@pinkiepie-rawhide:puchatek-del$ g++ --version
g++ (GCC) 5.1.1 20150618 (Red Hat 5.1.1-4)


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

5.1.1-4

How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. g++ -posix hello.cc

Actual results:

13:53 hrw@pinkiepie-rawhide:puchatek-del$ g++ hello.cc -posix
g++: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-posix’

Expected results:

source compiled

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2015-09-03 12:22:15 UTC

Just fix up pdfedit not to do it, use portable -D_POSIX_SOURCE instead?
These compatibility options really shouldn't be added to new ports.

Comment 2 Marcin Juszkiewicz 2015-09-03 12:42:23 UTC

Thanks Jakub.

Will patch.
