Bug#412003: FTBFS (alpha): DEFINEMACRO: max. 61 arguments supported, not 1
Dear Falk Hueffner, you wrote: Package: yodl Version: 2.10-1 Severity: serious Justification: no longer builds from source Brrr... Sounds ominous. Especially since the 2.04a *did* build on Alpha. I looked at the logs, and did notice some unexpected and possibly serious warnings, which definitely need some attention. One of the changes implemented in version 2.10 is the use of size_t rather than unsigned. It looks as though that's both the cause of the unexpected warnings and the cause of the execution problem. Actually, yodl builds fine, but then its execution shows unexpected behavior. E.g., messages like std.html.yo:100: DEFINEMACRO: max. 61 arguments supported, not 1 are of course remarkable: if 61 is the maximum number, then 1 should not qualify for an error, should it? Now my problem is that as far as I know nobody in my environment uses the Alpha running Debian Linux. I can ask around, maybe one of my colleagues has an Alpha. But on the other hand: maybe you could provide me with a (temporary) account on an Alpha so I can research the problem's cause myself rather than using a real `man-in-the-middle' who I would constantly have to ask to perform the next test. So, thanks for letting me know about this problem. I'll certainly have a look at it as soon as possible. Depending on me gaining access to an Alpha, the repair may either come quickly or not as quickly. Cheers, -- Frank B.
