Package: gcc-4.3
Version: 4.3.2-1.1
Severity: important
File: /usr/bin/gcov-4.3
The gcov man page reports that one can give gcov multiple source files
at one invocation. This does not work:
gcov -o BUILD-Linux-i686--coverage ../src/*.c
reports that most source files contain 'No executable lines'.
Whereas
for i in ../src/*.c; do gcov -o BUILD-Linux-i686--coverage $i; done
produced sensible answers.
This is probably a problem for upstream, but an immediate fix would be
to alter the man page to warn users that they can give only one source
file at a time.

This bug has been reported against an ancient version of
gpc (4.1), gcc/g++/gfortran (4.3), or gcj/gij/gobjc (4.4), that was last
released with Debian 6.0 (squeeze). But even squeeze-lts has now reached
end-of-life and is no longer supported.
The bug is assumed to be fixed (or no longer relevant) in newer GCC
releases and therefore I'm closing this report now. If the problem is
still reproducible in the currently supported versions (gcc-5, gcc-6 or
corresponding g++/gcj), feel free to provide more information, reopen
and reassign this bug report.
Andreas
