[Openchrome-users] Many compilation errors on vanilla Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper) system

[Stuart Rossiter]

Hi,

  Hope it's acceptable to post compilation problems (since it was for a
vanilla OS build, thought it would be OK)......

I'm trying to compile openchrome on a basic Ubuntu Dapper setup using the
latest 342 trunk revision and following the standard details at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome.

I've changed nothing from the basic distro (other than an apt-get upgrade),
so am using 0.1.33.2-0ubuntu4 of the xserver-xorg-driver-via package.  I get
all kinds of basic compilation errors:

It's trying to run:

if /bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.
-I..    -DXFree86Server -DIN_MODULE -DXFree86Module -DXFree86LOADER
-I/usr/include/xorg -I/usr/include/drm   -I/usr/include/drm
-I/usr/include/X11/dri   -g -O2 -MT via_accel.lo -MD -MP -MF
".deps/via_accel.Tpo" -c -o via_accel.lo via_accel.c; \
    then mv -f ".deps/via_accel.Tpo" ".deps/via_accel.Plo"; else rm -f
".deps/via_accel.Tpo"; exit 1; fi
 gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -DXFree86Server -DIN_MODULE
-DXFree86Module -DXFree86LOADER -I/usr/include/xorg -I/usr/include/drm
-I/usr/include/drm -I/usr/include/X11/dri -g -O2 -MT via_accel.lo -MD -MP
-MF .deps/via_accel.Tpo -c via_accel.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/via_accel.o

I won't post all the errors, but the top few are:

In file included from via.h:31,
                 from via_accel.c:44:
/usr/include/string.h:293: error: conflicting types for 'xf86memmove'

In file included from via.h:32,
                 from via_accel.c:44:

Looks like some major differences between the dependencies source and the
openchrome stuff. Since a change was made yesterday (6th June), I tried with
the last revision before that as well but same result (given the nature of
the change, didn't expect much luck).

Is there anything fundamental I'm missing?? Is the complation prep clever
enough to account for differing versions of dependent libraries?

Any insight appreciated.

Regards,
Stuart
