Package: cpp-3.3 Version: 1:3.3.2-0pre3 Severity: important I was using cpp to compile one of my packages and then I got the following:
cpp-3.3 -DLILO=0x4897777b `( if [ -r $ROOT/etc/lilo.defines ]; then cat $ROOT/etc/lilo.defines; else echo -DBDATA -DDSECS=3 -DEVMS -DIGNORECASE -DLVM -DONE_SHOT -DPASS160 -DREISERFS -DREWRITE_TABLE -DSOLO_CHAIN -DVERSION -DVIRTUAL; fi ) | sed 's/-D/-DLCF_/g'` -DFIRST=0x9c4ad6f1 -o first.s first.S as86 -0 -a -w -l first.lis -o first.o first.s 00033 00000000> S ***** illegal label..............................^ 00046 00000000> S ***** illegal label..............................^ 00033 00000000> S ***** illegal label..............................^ 00046 00000000> S ***** illegal label..............................^ 00002 errors 00000 warnings make: *** [first.o] Error 1 The problem is, cpp generated files with weird "S" letters within the file and obviously as86 could not parse those strange characters leading to an error. Previous versions of cpp (2.95, 3.0) worked just fine. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux volatile 2.4.22-ck1 #2 vie sep 5 14:33:21 COT 2003 i686 Locale: LANG=es_ES, LC_CTYPE=es_ES (ignored: LC_ALL set to es_ES) Versions of packages cpp-3.3 depends on: ii gcc-3.3-base 1:3.3.2-0pre3 The GNU Compiler Collection (base ii libc6 2.3.2-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an -- no debconf information -- Documentation is like sex: when it is good, it is very, very good; and when it is bad, it is better than nothing. -- Dick Brandon
