Description of problem: I just tried to compile package gaim-1.0.1-3 from Redhat Fedora Core 3. The compiler said zephyr.c(1081): remark #592: variable "from" is used before its value is set The source code is handle_message(gc,notice,from); I agree with the compiler. This code would benefit from rework. Suggest that from is not used in routine handle_message, so can be safely deleted. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
The variable "from" isn't actually _used_ anywhere. It's just passed to a function, and that function completely ignores it. Why the parameter is there in the first place... your guess is as good as mine. I've removed it in CVS head and in oldstatus. This error should be gone in Gaim 1.1.0.
