Hi,

I just downloaded the source for emacs from the above site and received this error message from gcc.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

Best regards and STAY SAFE!!! VOTE!!!

How did you download and try to build Emacs?  Please include the exact
commands you used.

Stefan,

Thanks for responding.

Here's the URL where I got the "git clone" command from:

https://savannah.gnu.org/git/?group=emacs

1) git clone...
2) cd emacs
3) ./autogen.sh
4) ./configure

Do you want all the options I specified?

I assume that this was:

git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/emacs.git

Yes, please.  We would need the exact commands in order to try to
reproduce the error you are seeing, including all command line flags.
This also includes how you ran "make".

Did you get any errors when running any of the above commands?

Could you also tell us what system (including its version) that you are
using?

More information was requested, but none was received, so I'm closing
this bug report.  If this is still an issue, please respond to the
debbugs address and we'll reopen the report.
