Alright, but why does this work differently using different versions of gcc or 
different optimization levels?

Bug#372913: assembler output...

Seems like it "optimizes" the essential comparision around line 18...

Bug#372913: gcc-4.1: datatype limits / signedness differs with optimization levels

2006-06-12 Thread Erik Meusel
Package: gcc-4.1
Version: 4.1.1-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Use this little example to see what's happening:

#include 

int main(void) {
char c = '\0';

do {
printf("%d\n", c);

c++;
} while (c != '\0');

return 0;
}

- using -O0 as optimization level with gcc-4.1 works as expected: the values 
change from 0 over 127, -128 (because of the signedness) back to 0
- using -O1 with gcc-4.1 makes the values go from 0 to 255
- using -O2 (or higher) results in an infinite loop

This also occurs in gcc-snapshot and does not in gcc < 4.1.

Regards,
Erik

Bug#346115: lineak-xosdplugin: doesn't print onscreen messages anymore

2006-01-06 Thread Erik Meusel


> Is it the first time you use lineak-xosdplugin, or have you use it 
before and it stopped to work?


Well, I used it, and it worked for a while. I pushed the 
next-prev-buttons on my girlfriend's multimedia keyboard, and the 
messages appeared in amarok. It stopped working months or weeks ago, so 
I tried to fix it, yesterday. Starting lineakd threw a message about 
lineakd being unable to call the function, so I commented it in and made 
it compile and link. If you wish, I ask my girlfriend to reproduce the 
bug using the original etch package. It might be useful to mention, that 
I use an etch environment with KDE 3.5 packages from alioth and 
backported amarok. However, by commenting in the function, xosdplugin 
worked again. It may also be that this bug only triggers since version 2 
of libxosd. I don't know when the transition to version 2 has been done.
