Re: gEDA: Compile problems with icarus and SuSE 10.0

[sdb@xxxxxxxxxx (Stuart Brorson)]

Aaaargh!  I am probably creating more confusion every time I post!

The *released* CD has 0.8.1 (or something like that) on it.  That's
what Peter is using. 

I have a *nonreleased* CD in testing which has the CVS version on it.
This version seems to work with the gcc-4.0.X series compiler.  Nobody
other than me has seen this CD yet.

Hoping this posting doesn't create more confusion, 

Stuart
