Compiling DigSig fails: Compiler/Makefile output
Hey,

I'm trying to install DigSig ( disec.sourceforge.net ) on my CentOS5 distro. I was following all the steps in the readme but it didn't work. So here's the output:
Code:
[root@xx digsig-1.4.1]# ./digsig.init compile
make: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-194.32.1.el5-i686'
  CC [M]  /home/Chris/digsig-1.4.1/digsig.o
In file included from /home/Chris/digsig-1.4.1/gnupg/mpi/mpi.h:35,
                 from /home/Chris/digsig-1.4.1/dsi_sig_verify.h:22,
                 from /home/Chris/digsig-1.4.1/digsig.c:40:
/home/Chris/digsig-1.4.1/gnupg/mpi/memory.h:41: error: conflicting types for ‘krealloc’
include/linux/slab.h:218: error: previous declaration of ‘krealloc’ was here
/home/Chris/digsig-1.4.1/digsig.c:580: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
make[1]: *** [/home/Chris/digsig-1.4.1/digsig.o] Error 1
make: *** [_module_/home/Chris/digsig-1.4.1] Error 2
make: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-194.32.1.el5-i686'
make: Nothing to be done for `all'.

The thing is: I don't understand it. This error looks to me like a wrong include or wrong function definiton or something like that. But how can this be? I mean I downloaded the files of the stable release (so the assumption that they should work isn't too odd), didn't change anything and then run into trouble.
Any ideas? Maybe someone will even try it or has already tried it?
Please note that I already tried the last 3 DigSig releases, all of them produced the same error

I'd rather guess the problem is the fact that the project hasn't been updated since March 2009 (first complete sentence on the projects site), becoming incompatible with current kernels.

Edit: I think you can probably close here Smilie
