Description David Binderman 2005-11-17 11:28:17 UTC 
I just tried to compile package pan-0.14.2-82 with the Intel C 
compiler.

It said

gmime-message-partial.c(419): warning #1251: returning pointer to local variable

The source code is

                return &message;

but

GMimeMessage **
g_mime_message_partial_split_message (GMimeMessage *message, size_t max_size, size_t *nparts)
{

so message is one of the parameters of the routine. Suggest code rework.

BTW, the email address of the author [ e.Messiah@superpimp.org ] appears to 
be broken.

We do not support the Intel C Compiler currently.
If you need PAN to compile with the Intel C Compiler, you should contact the upstream package authors / maintainers.

See the project homepage at:

http://pan.rebelbase.com/

You should use the mailinglist listed there to report anything, suggestedly pan-devel.

I don't need PAN to be compilable with Intel C compiler,
I am just using it to find bugs.

GNU C compiler will also find this PAN bug I think.

It seems like I need to set up an account to send in a bug report.

I don't think I'll bother. Thanks anyway.
