Please update gcc to version 3.x.x, gcc2.96 was a broken unofficial version of RedHat and all dependancies must be updated too. (like binutils)
Time to put an entry in README or something else ? Is gcc version checked by configure ? --- Matt Bailey mattb@rtccom.net a écrit : > Hi,
Any ideas on that last error message I sent? One detail I did not mention is that I still have libstdc++2.10 installed, it says it's version 2.96-0.76mdk. I knew there was some 2.96 package still installed but I had forgotten what it was called. I can't uninstall this package because it is needed by a BUNCH of other apps........looks like it would just about trash my Mandrake install to remove this package. Do I need to upgrade this
package, and if so, how would I go about it without completely uninstalling it? I also have installed libstdc++5, version 3.2-1mdk. Is it hopeless? I don't blame you if you gave up on this problem. :) Anyway, your advice has been greatly helpful already, much appreciated.
-Matt Bailey

That's total FUD. There is no problem compiling and running Wine on a 2.96-based distro.
Really ? :) See GCC team offical response to it. http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-2.96.html
If interested in any other projects response: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/users_against_developers.html#gcc
If you think its false, telle me why the wine code doesnt compile with 2 Mandrake machines having this version of gcc?

MPlayer's problem was famously revealed by Bero as a couple of typos in their inline ASM that 2.95.x ignored. I built and ran mplayer fine with 2.96 after fixing their dumb typo and turning off their compiler detection, but Xine is much better anyway ;-)

Ask Mandrake. Wine compiles and runs fine on all Red Hat 7.x distros using 2.96. I use it daily to run some important Win32 apps :-)

The Mplayer project has ugly code, I admit it. But it isnt the only project that has problems. I ran into random segfaults (gcc AND wine) when using gcc 2.96 (I used all gcc 2.96 versions with RedHat since Im demo subscribed to RHN)

FUD, 2.96 is just yet another C++ incompatible version of gcc. 2.96 was broken in the beginning but is long ago fixed. Even Linus used it to compile the Kernel with it. Ok, the 2.96-0.76mdk of the OP seems to be pretty old; i'm using at the moment gcc-2.96-113 and it just works.

The code that has problem for now is C code, not C++, am I right here ? Then it has nothing to do with C++ thing.

Yeah, but the page you pointed to is for C++ incompatibilities, not C. And a newer 2.96 is stable for C.

If there is one, it isnt shipped with RH 8, or not by default. Could you point me to where it can be downloaded ? Has it dependancies to be updated ?
If it isnt newer than 2003-02-21, date at this page was modified, it says : "Current snapshots of GCC, and any version labeled 2.96, produce object files that are not compatible with those produced by either GCC 2.95.2 or the forthcoming GCC 3.0."
