Description Mary Ellen Foster 2011-12-16 11:36:08 UTC
Created attachment 547744 [details]
mcpp patch from ZeroC.com

Description of problem:

There's a known bug in mcpp 2.7.2 that breaks several of the compilers included in ice-3.4.2 -- a forum posting describing the issue is here:
    http://www.zeroc.com/forums/bug-reports/5309-mishap-slice-compilers.html#post23180

And the necessary patch is included in this tarball:
    http://www.zeroc.com/download/Ice/3.4/ThirdParty-Sources-3.4.2.tar.gz
I'll also attach the patch to this bug report

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mcpp-2.7.2-5.fc15.x86_64


Additional info:

Apparently mcpp upstream isn't able to make a new release fixing this issue:

Comment 1 Mary Ellen Foster 2011-12-16 11:38:44 UTC
Oh, I now see that the Fedora maintainer of mcpp (Kiyoshi Matsui) is also the upstream mcpp developer. I'll try to get a patched version built myself now if you still don't have time to maintain things.

Comment 2 Mary Ellen Foster 2011-12-16 11:43:55 UTC
Oh, hee -- I see that I'm already a co-maintainer. Well, I'll try to get this fixed up today myself then. :)
