Hi there,


Don't use the ircii-pana-1.0c19.tar.gz .

Use the latest snap from cvs

You'll get some warnings but it will compile ;)

Have fun.

Sounds like gcc-3.2.x doesn't like BithcX's source. This should be
trivial to fix manually, though. Look for something like

#define STUSER18 "stuser18"
#define PAREN "("
printf(STUSER18 PAREN);

and change it to
printf("%s%s\n", STUSER18, PAREN);

Cheers,

I've poked around in the source and I'm unable to make these types of
changes (I'm not a developer, just a "technical user").  Is anyone
aware
of a patch that will get this software building on FC1 or have a
binary
rpm that can be installed that works?  Thanks!
