[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#746863: FTBFS src:insighttoolkit4

[Gianfranco Costamagna]

Unfortunately seems that the gccxml changes are almost 0 (I got confused by the commits exactly one month ago).

However the builds in my pbuilder chroot went successfully, I did a cmake .. with the parameters in rules file, and the make was successful. (did not run dpkg or fakeroot, since the build failure was in make and reproducible with manual cmake issuing)

So my opinion is that rebuilding gccxml with a newer unstable programs (gcc-4.9?) did the trick or the autoconf stuff fixed this issue, rather than the new upstream release (that has no differences from the debian one, just one line that shouldn't have any effect and the patch merged).

So if my guess is right my two builds (I'm rebuilding both amd64 and i386 at the same time) will succeed and I'll report here.

Unfortunately this will take some hours, I'm still around 30% of the build process for both of them


The debdiff for insighttoolkit4 is fairly trivial
