While looking through the build.log for tqt3 I kept getting distracted
by
the piles of "suggest parentheses around â&&â within â||â [-Wparentheses]" warnings--so I went through the source and added in all the missing parentheses g++ was complaining about (plus fixed a few more warnings where the fix was just as obvious). The build log is much easier to read
now,
and potentially problematic warnings (such as
[-Wdelete-non-virtual-dtor][1])
are no longer buried among the noise.
Great! I wanted to do something similar but never found the time.
What is the best way for me to get the tqt3 source changes to you?
Just send a patch to this list; I'll watch for it and update qt3/tqt3.
So, just a simple:
$ diff -ru {tde,build}/main/dependencies/tqt3 > tqt3.diff
is all you want?
No, Debian applies patches that are not suitable for the generic source tree when it builds a package. You would first need to reverse out all of the Debian specific patches, then run the diff command.
