Comment 1 David Schleef 2003-08-17 22:50:02 UTC 
Can you find out the equivalent of .align for your assembler?
Comment 2 Damien Carbery 2003-08-19 14:36:52 UTC 
There is a '.align' in the Sun ONE Studio 8 assembler:
http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/806-3773/6jct9o0aa?q=align&a=view
but I don't see mention of '.p2align'.
If I comment out the '.p2align' items it compiles fine but I presume
these are rather important lines.
Comment 3 David Schleef 2003-08-21 08:03:40 UTC 
Uh... _what_ .p2align lines?

.p2align should be converted to .align, keeping only the first argument.

Many .align directives may be omitted entirely, but generally with a
performance penalty.
Comment 4 Damien Carbery 2003-08-21 08:25:37 UTC 
My mistake - I am using gstreamer 0.6.1. The '.p2align' code is in the
file in this version.
I will look at upgrading to a newer version. Is HEAD CVS going into
Gnome 2.4?
Comment 5 Ronald Bultje 2003-08-22 05:56:56 UTC 
No, 0.6.x (CVS TAG BRANCH-GSTREAMER-0_6) will go into Gnome-2.4.
Comment 6 David Schleef 2003-08-30 06:56:55 UTC 
I don't think this bug is in 0.6.3.  Please reopen if you still have
problems.
