[news.software.b] 'make' fails for 'rn'

ray@bcsaic.UUCP (Ray Allis) (11/25/89)

When I 'make' rn, I get the following:

"util.c", line 36: redeclaration of signal
"util.c", line 55: warning: illegal pointer combination
"util.c", line 56: warning: illegal pointer combination
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target 'util.o'

This is 'rn.tar.Z' from uunet.  I'm compiling on a Sun 3/60
running SunOs 4.0.3.  rn is at patchlevel 40.

How do I fix this?

There is a declaration for signal in util.c. Delete it.
