Description Andrea Veri 2011-10-24 16:11:51 UTC 
Hi,

byzanz actually failed to build on a few archs. (-Werror=cast-align's warning)

You can find the full logs at:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=byzanz

Thanks in advance,

Andrea

Fix FTBFS-because-of-Wcast-align-error-flag

I intend to adopt byzanz for Debian. I have attached a patch which fixes the aforementioned issue on Debian.
Comment 2 Andrea Veri 2012-10-03 12:51:10 UTC 
Byzanz's upstream is not active from what I see, thus I've applied the patch myself. If you plan to maintain the upstream branch as well, let me know.

Comment 3 Benjamin Otte (Company) 2012-10-10 23:20:31 UTC 
I looked at the warnings on the buildd and tried to make gcc not warn about them. Of course, I don't own a Sparc, so I can't check if all the warnings are gone now (or if my fixes even worked). So it'd be nice if someone could take git master and see if it compiles fine. And if not, report back.
Comment 4 Markus Koschany 2012-10-11 00:24:24 UTC 
Thanks for including all the patches. I will build a new package from git master and try to find a sponsor who uploads the package to Debian experimental. If it fails again, i'll report back.
