I can reproduce this with: make COPTS="-O2 -std=c89" all It also throws up some other warnings, so I'll address those as well. It looks like we did have this working at some point in the past: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libcap/libcap.git/commit/?id=d45a3d4812598fc056499fa4622be4af58076bd5 (libcap-2.29) This is now fixed again as of this (will eventually be included in libcap-2.52): https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libcap/libcap.git/commit/?id=06ec53d0c9fcddcc071a0e07731e6c83238400e6 |
Byron Stanoszek reports: ----------------------- I have a small bug report for you concerning libcap-2.51. It fails to compile out of the box on RedHat Enterprise Linux 7.6 due to the following error: # make ... uns_test.c: In function ‘main’: uns_test.c:118:5: error: ‘for’ loop initial declarations are only allowed in C99 mode for (int i=0; i<2; i++) { ^ uns_test.c:118:5: note: use option -std=c99 or -std=gnu99 to compile your code make[2]: *** [uns_test] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/src/rhel7-os-update/libcap-2.51/tests' make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/src/rhel7-os-update/libcap-2.51/tests' make: *** [all] Error 2 # gcc -v Using built-in specs.
