Dear Maintainer,

I tried to rebuild kopete from source and got errors such as these:

Generating s5b.moc
/mnt/extras/src/kopete-17.08.3/protocols/jabber/libiris/src/irisnet/noncore/cutestuff/bytestream.h:52: Parse error at "defined"

Apparently this is caused by a nonconformity of moc's preprocessor which
manifests itself when macro

major(arg)

is defined, as, unfortunately file <sys/sysmacros.h> does. The line 52
in the error message refers to a line in this particular file (not in
the file it reports, which is a bit confusing.

This has been noted before. I have found a rethat bugreprot of the same
problem here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1396755. Their
solution is to work it around by a hack that filters that particular
include out. A proper fix would be to make the preprocessor correct, but
that would require too much work.

Therefore, I propose this patch, that, in line with redhat hacks it
around. I've checked that with the patch, kopete builds successfully.

Hi Jiri!

I reember this was an issue some time ago. I went ahead and rebuilt unstable's
kopete and did it without issues. So I wonder why unstable kopete builds and
your build doesnt :-/

For what it's worth, the next kopete version should be qt5 based.

Hello,
I don't know, maybe it's the libc version ? (2.27-2)

Yes, but that's assuming there won't be any need for rebuilds.

I don't know.
an up-to-date unstable chroot without any issues.

Greeting,

I have access to very vital information that can be used to
move huge amounts of money.

If it was possible for me to do it alone I would not
have bothered contacting you. Ultimately I need you to play an
important role in the completion of this business transaction.

Regards,
Mr Alexander Bulyanda
