I wonder whether we should we enable "comparison with string literal" gcc warnings (RPM_OPT_FLAGS) 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.

Fame at last ;-> I've got plenty of spare time. Also, only about 90% of the warnings are worth fixing, so I wouldn't recommend making it a fatal error, because of the about 10% where it doesn't seem to be a problem. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

I suspect that you could do very similar things for the "x is used uninitialized" gcc warning message. I can't think of any scenario where you would want to read from a local variable that the gcc compiler is sure contains rubbish. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

I have so-far post poned making those hard errors, since last time we had discussions because they triggered too often. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
