Hello Hogren,

Reason of error:The assumption has become faulty, since C11 has dropped gets, and glibc has additionally dropped it for GNU sources after that.This error comes with new gcc toolchain.

Solution: Comment in file srclib/stdio.in.h

_GL_WARN_ON_USE (gets, "gets is a security hole - use fgets instead");

OR you can put this line in macros and don't define the macros while compiling.

Follow this link

hello,

I have a gentoo machine.

I tried to compile and install libiconv 1.14.
./configure is ok.
When I tried a "make", there was the error :  error: ?gets? undeclared
here (not in a function) - about the line 1010 of the srclib/stdio.h
file.

I adapted this topic to your software :
http://postwarrior.com/openwrt-error-gets-undeclared-here-not-in-a-function/

And all is ok, I could "make" and "make install" without other problem.

So I think there is a lack in you ./configure test-suite or in the
stdio.h code.

Don't hesitate to ask me more information about my system or other
thing.



If you are the time, can you, please, just look at my mails in
gtk-devel-list about a problem I have but I don't know if it's about
mingw, msys, libiconv, or glib :

Thank you !

Regards,

Hogren
