Bug#439117: libcommoncpp2-dev: common c++ cannot be used with gcc 4.2

[Andreas Pakulat]

Package: libcommoncpp2-dev
Version: 1.5.7-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I've got no idea wether this is solvable without rebuilding common C++
against gcc 4.2, anyway it should be noted that the common c++ package
that is shipped with debian unstable doesn't work with gcc 4.2.

The reason is config.h line 1088, it tries to #include <bits/atomic.h>
which doesn't exist in gcc 4.2 anymore. A workaround is to set a #undef
HAVE_GCC_BITS_ATOMIC and #undef HAVE_GCC_CXX_BITS_ATOMIC 3 lines above.

A real solution might be to configure the common c++ package to _not_
use bits/atomic at all while building it (don't know wether thats
possible).

Andreas
