Description Christian Persch 2006-03-29 19:13:55 UTC 
While compiling gnome/applet/, I got this problem:

In file included from applet.h:37,
                 from main.c:33:
nm-device.h:98: warning: declaration of 'link' shadows a global declaration
/usr/include/unistd.h:729: warning: shadowed declaration is here

The parameter should be renamed in nm-device.h:98
Comment 1 Robert Love 2006-05-25 20:13:40 UTC 
Actually, unistd.h should not globally export to the entire system a common four letter word.  And this is fixed in later glibc releases.

But I went ahead and fixed it, renaming link, in both our stable and HEAD branch.

Thanks.
