Description Christian Bauer 2001-08-07 14:54:17 EDT

Description of Problem:
The header files in the readline-devel-4.2-1 package have some problems
that make them unusable when including them in C++ source (it generates
lots of messages like "/usr/include/readline/rltypedefs.h:48:
`rl_command_func_t' declared with an exception specification" during
compilation).

The same problem has occurred (and been fixed) in Debian. A more detailed
description and the fix can be found here:

Comment 1 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer 2001-08-07 15:17:28 EDT

Fixed in 4.1-2 (Debian's patch has one thinko, after that's removed,
it's ok)
