           Summary: implicit declaration of function ‘_doprnt’ in
                    libiberty/vfprintf.c
           Product: gdb
           Version: 7.2
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gdb
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: kamaraju@gmail.com


when compiling gdb with -Werror option, the compilation stops with the
following error.

It seems to me that vfprintf.c should not be compiled on a Debian box.
I suspect the error occurs elsewhere.  Maybe libiberty/config.log
would be helpful.

I think the problem is in autoconf.
libiberty uses AC_REPLACE_FUNCS and apparently this is not
-Werror safe.  From the log:


configure:5913: checking for vfprintf
configure:5913: i486-linux-gnu-gcc -o conftest -g -Werror     conftest.c  >&5
conftest.c:86:6: error: conflicting types for built-in function 'vfprintf'
[-Werror]
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors


You could report this to the autoconf maintainers.
Meanwhile, don't configure with -Werror.

Not really a gdb bug, more of an autoconf thing and/or don't pass
-Werror to configure.
