Problems compiling modutils

[Sparkle]

When I compile the source I run into probles with modutils.

The file modstat.c at line 203 looks ok in my opinion.

it looks like the compiler is no more accepting this
try the change from http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/200 ... 00379.html

P.S.: do you need modutils or can u go with the module stuff from busybox

I do not know. At the moment I just want to get the "make all" to finish properly.

I did touch .modutils and "postponed" the probelm.

But then I ran in to a similar problem with procps. But that's another topic.

You only need modutils 2.4.21 if you intend to use a 2.4.xx-kernel. But the Dreambox uses the 2.6 series of the Linuxkernel for ages now so I can't really imagine why you want to use an old kernel?

BTW: those "compound block"-issues for procps have been fixed in HEAD when the compiler suite was changed to the newer gcc.

Then again I have never tried to build the Dreambox branch so I don't know what's the status in there.

That sounds great. As I said earlier I just want the "make all" to finish so I can start work with the code and "make" chosed to compile modutils.

Simple as that.

But compiling the source for the dreambox is not an easy task. I have run in to lots of problems. Mostly sourcecode that can't be downloaded. I have had to surf the net to download it manually and then restart "make".

Does any body do a nightly och a weekly build? From scratch I mean.
