Re: GRUB build failure

Hi,

I figured out that I should add "--disable-werror" to the configure.

After this I was able to build successfully.

Thanks,

Naveen

Hi,

Host : Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS

GCC : gcc (Ubuntu 7.3.0-16ubuntu3) 7.3.0

uname : Linux vm 5.0.0-27-generic #28~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 22 03:00:32 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I have clone the GRUB2 from https://github.com/rhboot/grub2 today and the HEAD points to e7b8856f8be3292afdb38d2e8c70ad8d62a61e10 (linux: Fix integer overflows in initrd size handling).

I followed the below steps to compile after cloning :

$ ./bootstrap

$ ./autogen.sh

$ export EFI_ARCH=x86_64

$ ./configure --with-platform=efi --target=$EFI_ARCH --program-prefix=""

$ make

I get the below error :

Making all in grub-core

Can someone please direct me what am I missing and why I get this error.
