Description Martin Jambor 2024-06-04 15:19:30 UTC 
GCC 14 newly by default treats as errors a number of situations which
before were only warnings.  For more information see
https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-14/porting_to.html and meta bug #1220571.

Because of this, package transfig fails to compile.  This can be seen online
at:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/live_build_log/openSUSE:Factory:Staging:Gcc7/transfig/standard/x86_64

It can be reproduced locally with command: osc build --clean
--alternative-project home:rguenther:nextgcc

Patch from https://bugs.gentoo.org/875419 comment #9 can perhaps help
us.


The (first) error (that halts the build) is:

[  105s] genpstex.c: In function ‘genpstex_p_start’:
[  105s] genpstex.c:165:17: error: implicit declaration of function ‘put_msg’; did you mean ‘puts’? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
[  105s]   165 |                 put_msg("Argument -p is mandatory to pstex_p.");
Comment 1 Dr. Werner Fink 2024-07-02 05:51:41 UTC 
This does not help as transfig 3.2.9 already includes

https://bugs.gentoo.org/875419#c10

and much more
Comment 2 Dr. Werner Fink 2024-07-02 06:13:23 UTC 
SR#1184778 should fix the last missing declaration of put_msg()
