Re: gEDA: Compile problems with icarus and SuSE 10.0

[sdb@xxxxxxxxxx (Stuart Brorson)]

SuSE 10.0 uses the dreaded gcc-4.0.x compiler with strict type
checking.  This version of gcc chokes on lots of formerly working
programs.  Two possibilities for you:  

1.  Grab the latest copy (0.8.2) out of the Icarus FTP site, which you
can get to from here:

http://geda.seul.org/tools/icarus/index.html

2.  SuSE should have "compatibility" versions of gcc and g++ on its
install media.  Find them through yast and install them.  These will
not choke on the old version of Icarus.

I will be releasing a CD very soon which will overcome the recent
problems with FC4 and SuSE 10.0.  If you can wait, the CD should fix
your problems.
