Can someone point me in the right direction? My package openCOLLADA is FTBFS in rawhide with the following (repeating) error: /builddir/build/BUILD/OpenCOLLADA-3335ac164e68b2512a40914b14c74db260e6ff7d/COLLADABaseUtils/src/COLLADABUURI.cpp:57:2: error: narrowing conversion of '-1' from 'int' to 'char' inside { } [-Wnarrowing] }; I tried using the gcc6 porting guide but I'm not qutie enough of a programmer to understand how to apply it in this case. The offending code is: const char HEX2DEC[256] = ^M {^M /* 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F */^M /* 0 */ -1,-1,-1,-1, -1,-1,-1,-1, -1,-1,-1,-1, -1,-1,-1,-1,^M /* 1 */ -1,-1,-1,-1, -1,-1,-1,-1, -1,-1,-1,-1,
<snip> On _ARM_ (actually build failure seems to be on ARM) char is _unsigned_ by default, so converting (int)-1 to char on ARM is narrowing conversion and C++11 forbids this on list-initialization. You can do this when you explicitly cast, like const char HEX2DEC[256] = { (char)-1, ..... } Regards, Mamoru -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
