Thanks for fixing this. The problem here is not the lost precision, but that the build fails in all 64Bit architectures in debian unstable.
Are the Debian packages built with -Werror? I wouldn't have expected it to be fatal. That said I will pay closer attention in the future...
No, they aren't. You can have a look at the build-log on alpha at http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?&pkg=inkscape&ver=0.39%2B0.40pre1... There it says
CFLAGS="-Wall -g -O2" CXXFLAGS="-Wall -g -O2" ./configure --host=alpha-linux --build=alpha-linux --prefix=/usr --mandir=${prefix}/share/man --infodir=${prefix}/share/info
and later there is no -Werror in the gcc-call.
Shall I open a bug on this in the tracker? I originally wanted to do that, but yesterday I was in a hurry so I just pressed the forward key in mutt.
This particular one's already been fixed in CVS, so there's not much point filing a bug for it now.
If there are other such issues in the codebase, please file a bug for each general area of code affected, indicating the individual places where such casts are made.
OK, I'll try. The problem is I don't have any 64-Bit machine here to test. I'll build pre2 today an wait what the buildds say. I'll try to get acces to one of debian's machines available for developers.
