Description Stefan Dirsch 2007-01-16 22:16:05 UTC 
I wonder whether we should we enable gcc warnings for array index checking (RPM_OPT_FLAGS) - given that gcc bug http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8268 ever gets fixed - and even trigger a fatal build error? I think we could safe David's resources (rebuilding each package and filing bugreports) and Novell's resources (bugreport handling) as well. Yes, this bug is similar to Bug #233655.

Comment 2 Marcus Meissner 2007-01-16 22:20:18 UTC 
as soon as dirk gets the patch into mainline gcc ;)

(There just is no warning at this time.)

and we get gcc 4.3 ... ;)
Comment 3 Dirk Mueller 2007-01-18 13:14:28 UTC 
the patch is in mainline, it could be backported (off by default). but thats not my decision.

unfortunately there are quite a number of false positives.

An example ?

Feel free to report a bug in gcc.

Lots of bugs in Suse Linux depend on this being fixed.
