Is your Debian installation up to date? Your old compiler etc might be due to this. If not, please do the usual thing (aptitude update; aptitude safe- upgrade) and see if this helps.. Just in case, Dima On 13 June, 00:46, orca wrote: > Ok Marik > > I checked that the default g++ under lenny is s

Hi, is your Debian installation up to date? It could be that an older gcc you have by default is due to this, and if so, there is no telling as to what goes wrong. Just in case you wonder what I mean, you ought to run aptitude update and then aptitude safe-upgrade and see if there are no "held ba

FLINT needs to compile with the -std=c99 flag. I presume someone overrode it somehow, which breaks the build. Bill. On Jun 12, 11:46 pm, orca wrote: > Ok Marik > > I checked that the default g++ under lenny is said to be 4.3.2, > despite the fact that in mine it is 4.2.4 and I'm sure I did not >
