Of course I mean -Werror. Forgive me. :)

I'll ask around some Debian types regarding this problemo.

Did they explain how to do it correctly?

Makes no sense to me.

I don't know to which line he's refering, but it shouldn't matter if
the source code uses off_t, if it's a long or long long. Can someone
explain this to me or point me to the relevant file and line?

Sounds wrong to me since -Wall just displays warning messages. I think
the error will persist, but is not reported and therefore the source
code compiles.

Oh I noticed that the nostromo packaging fails to build on amd64. The
problem is something I forwarded upstream last month. However upstream
says Debian is doing it wrong! ;)
http://git.debian.org/?p=users/kai-guest/nostromo

So should there be a Debian patch for -Wall?

OK, I have found out that it seems off_t is defined as `long int'
instead `long long int'.  IMO this is wrong, but I am no Linux/Debian
specialist.  I haven't seen that problem with other Linux distris yet.

You can make a simple workaround by removing the compiler option
`-Wall' in nostromo/src/nhttpd/GNUmakefile from CCFLAGS, then it
should compile.

Marcus
