Subject: Set --disable-werror by default again for the release?
Date: Mon, 04 Dec 2006 18:25:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061204182442.GB11343@adacore.com> (raw)

Hello,

A user reported that he failed to build GDB on x86-linux, I think
it was RedHat FC 5. The builds are due to warnings beeing treated
as errors.

For the last release, I turned --disable-werror by default because
I didn't want users to get their build stuck because of warnings.
I thought there would be less issues with that with this release,
but maybe I'm wrong.

Because C compilers vary a lot in the warnings they emit, and newer
compilers always find newer warnings, I am starting to think that
we might want to produce all our released with --disable-werror by
default. More work for me, but less hassle for the users...

What does everyone think?
