Distribution: Debian testing/unstable
Package: gcalctool
Severity: minor
Version: GNOME2.5.91 unspecified
Gnome-Distributor: GARNOME
Synopsis: Build fails when compiling with the option -fdata-sections for gcc
Bugzilla-Product: gcalctool
Bugzilla-Component: general
Bugzilla-Version: unspecified
Description:
gcalctool 4.3.48 does not build successfully on gcc 3.3.3 (Debian
GNU/Linux testing/i686) when compiling with the option -fdata-sections.
Using this option causes a linker error due to multiply defined
symbols.
 
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Run the configure script with the argument `CFLAGS=-fdata-sections'.
2. Run make.
 
Actual Results:
The compilation fails with the following output:

gcc -fdata-sections -Wall -o gcalctool calctool.o display.o dsfuns.o

Additional Information:
`CalcVars' is defined in the header file `gcalctool/calctool.h'.
Changing this definition to an extern declaration and moving the actual
definition out of the header allows the build to complete successfully
after first running `make clean' in the `gcalctool' subdirectory.
