Well it started out with me getting a complaint from a user on my server saying he couldnt compile psybnc since I upgraded to 5.3 I told him I would investigate when I get time, I then found out later that ezbounce also failed (i use ezbounce) on 5.3, but my binary which was backed up from when I compiled on 5.2.1 works fine. I also heard from many friends on irc that psybnc doesnt work with 5.3 so obviously the problem is wide spread and it was one reason why a lot of shell companies were not upgrading from 4.x yet. I then decided to try psybnc myself and this is what happens using gcc 3.4.2 bundled with 5.3. Initializing bouncer compilation [*] Running Conversion Tool for older psyBNC Data. tools/convconf.c: In function `cofile': tools/convconf.c:81: error: label at end of compound statement *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/home/chrysalis/psybnc. I can duplicate this problem every single time on any 5.3 box it has a 100% failure rate so I would be interested to know how psybnc worked for you, however if I install gcc 3.3.6 and then edit the top line in Makefile to cc =3D gcc33 then it compiles fine. I will as you suggest try a later gcc in the 3.4.x branch as there is newer version then what is bundled in 5.3 and I will report back. I havent test ezbounce with 3.3.6 yet.
