Description
Current bip fails to build with recent GCC versions and default compiler flags:
src/log.c:442:37: error: duplicate 'const' declaration specifier [-Werror=duplicate-decl-specifier]
void log_part(log_t *logdata, const const char *ircmask, const char *channel,
^~~~~
src/log.c:443:9: error: duplicate 'const' declaration specifier [-Werror=duplicate-decl-specifier]
const const char *message)
^~~~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
Indeed there are two
const const char declarations in src/log.c log_part function. I'm attaching a patch that fixes these.
