Description Jitesh Shah 2009-08-14 09:34:35 UTC 
Created attachment 357414 [details]
Patch to fix the bug. 

Description of problem:
cln doesn't build on ARM with following errors:
In file included from ./base/digitseq/cl_asm_.cc:37:
./base/digitseq/cl_asm_arm_.cc:159:1: error: pasting "_mulu32_" and ":" does not give a valid preprocessing token
./base/digitseq/cl_asm_arm_.cc:195:1: error: pasting "_divu_3216_1616_" and ":" does not give a valid preprocessing token
and so on ...
Find the failed build here,
http://arm.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=53154

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cln-1.2.2-4

How reproducible:
Everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build on any ARM board with a compiler that uses the GNU ASM format. 
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Build fails

Expected results:
Build should succeed

Additional info:
cl_asm_arm.h file contains following definitions (under an ifdef for GNU ASM)
#define GLABEL(x) _##x##:
#define LABEL(x) x##:

for gcc ":" is a token in itself. So, the "##" after "x" makes no sense and gcc spews out errors. 
Attached is a suggested fix.

Comment 2 Bug Zapper 2010-04-28 09:45:49 UTC 
This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 11.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '11'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here: 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Comment 3 Bug Zapper 2010-06-28 14:07:54 UTC 
Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
