Re: can't make balsa-1.0.pre1 - libbalsa error

[Petter Sundlöf <odd findus dhs org>]

Hey.

I get this too, in many a programs - and --disable-more-warnings helps
avoid this error. Still, I would like to get to the bottom with what is
causing it. I'm curious as to what distribution you are using. Mine is
Slackware 7.1 (glibc 2.1.3)

Cheers
