Description Need Real Name 2000-10-10 06:11:27 UTC 
Hrm, I have both Rh 6.2 and RH 7 installed on 2 machines @ home and I would
like to say that some apps dont compile at all. One of them being cheops
and other being xmps-avi plugin. Both apps compile without a problem on
RH6.2

here is the output from the make command from both

Cheops:
[pramod@c846562-a cheops-0.60pre5]$ gmake

and for xmps avi-plugin

Any ideas?

In the first case you could grab cheops-0.60pre5-11 from powertools, the
fix is:

+++ cheops-0.60pre5/domain.c    Mon Jul  3 10:14:04 2000

                break;
(apply this by hand, since the tabs are messed up).
The issue is that those resource types were marked as unstandard and were
removed (both in glibc 2.2 and current bind).

The second case looks like missing #include <stdlib.h> in VideoDecoder.cpp.
Older g++ used the builtin abs() prototype but that was just hiding a bug
in the application.
