[mrsam@octopus tmp]$ cat foo.c
#include "foo.h"
[mrsam@octopus tmp]$ g++ -c foo.c
In file included from foo.c:1:0:
foo.h:3:10: warning: âxxâ has a field âxx::dbfâ whose type uses the anonymous namespace
The fix to gdbm.h, to get rid of this warning, is trivial, and has zero
impact.
I wrote to gdbm's listed maintainers two months ago, with no response. Given that gdbm hasn't been updated in nearly a decade, I have to believe that nobody really cares about this. Except developers who take a small amount of pride that their code gets happily consumed by gcc, even with -Werror. I see no way to work around this myself, it needs to be fixed in gdbm.h.
If anyone here knows gdbm's maintainers, a minor release that tweaks the header file, so that it can be pushed into Fedora, would be appreciated.
