Greetings! I don't know the best approach for submitting feedback, so I'm guessing. I got this email address from the FAQ, so I hope it's headed to the right place...
I recently downloaded gnustep-make-1.7.1, and compiled it on my solaris machine. Here are the relevant details: % uname -a SunOS straumli 5.8 Generic_108528-17 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-100 % gcc --version gcc (GCC) 3.3 Copyright (C) 2003 Free Software Foundation, Inc. This is free software; see the source for copying conditions. There is NO warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. % When I compile the package, I get a number of warnings: % make gcc -O2 -Wall -I. -o which_lib which_lib.c gcc -O2 -DGNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT=/usr/local/GNUstep/System \ -Wall -I. -o user_home user_home.c user_home.c: In function `main': user_home.c:278: warning: subscript has type `char' user_home.c:280: warning: subscript has type `char' user_home.c:282: warning: subscript has type `char' user_home.c:284: warning: subscript has type `char' user_home.c:289: warning: subscript has type `char' user_home.c:291: warning: subscript has type `char' user_home.c:354: warning: subscript has type `char' user_home.c:356: warning: subscript has type `char' user_home.c:358: warning: subscript has type `char' user_home.c:360: warning: subscript has type `char' % All of these are taken care of by inserting a cast-to-int in the isspace() functions calls at the appropriate lines. Should I use diff and submit a patch-type file? Should I check out a copy of the project with CVS and use that in some way?
