Created attachment 600421 [details]
proposed patch

Description of problem:
Pixie is failing to build because g++ will not (any longer?) implicitly cast a FILE* value to gzFile.  Which is a bit odd because gzFile is just a typedef for void *, but apparently it will no longer look through the typedef.  Anyway, the attached proposed patch gets it to build again.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Pixie-2.2.6-8.fc18

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Try to build in rawhide environment.

Comment 1 Gwyn Ciesla 2012-08-01 18:06:11 UTC
Committed and built in rawhide.
