Bug

[Jorge Calderon]

Hello,

I'm unable to reach the bug reporting database (500 error):

http://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?database=insight&user=guest&password=guest&cmd=login

I getting the following error while running make on version 6.8a using Fedora:

clang -c -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -ggdb3 -O0 -std=c99 -Wall -Werror -I.
-I../../insight-6.8/libiberty/../include  -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings
-Wc++-compat -Wstrict-prototypes -pedantic
../../insight-6.8/libiberty/regex.c -o regex.o
../../insight-6.8/libiberty/regex.c:130:7: error: incompatible redeclaration of
      library function 'malloc' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-library-redeclaration]
char *malloc ();

Thanks,

Jorge

I'll look into it, thanks.

6.8? That's like eight years old... I *really* recommend trying 
something newer, like 7.5 or 7.6. You will, however, have to build it 
yourself, and that just got complicated. Actually, *really* complicated.

GDB has moved to GIT and is no longer maintaining the CVS repository. I 
am in the process of moving Insight to GIT, too, but I am not ready with it.

In the meantime, you can still grab GDB from either CVS or GIT and 
insight from CVS (src/gdb/gdbtk and src/libgui are all that is needed). 
I've given detailed instructions on how to patch and build insight here:

If you run into any problems, send a note to the mailing list, and I 
will help you get through it. Heck, if you want a working tarball or 
something, I can probably post a snapshot to the FTP site. Just let me know.
