o match for call to `(QFont) ()'

[Tim Middleton]

I find that xca compiling is now broken on my FreeBSD 5.3 box. It's been a while since i've played with it, so i'm not sure what broke it (it used to work fine). QT is version 3.3.3. Can anyone more familiar with QT spot what the problem might be (looks like it may be the QT version)?

gcc -I. -I.. -I/usr/local/include/db4 -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wall -DPREFIX=\"/usr/local\" -DETC=\"/etc/xca\"  -c clicklabel.cpp -o clicklabel.o
clicklabel.cpp: In constructor `ClickLabel::ClickLabel(QWidget*, const char*, uint)':
clicklabel.cpp:61: error: no match for call to `(QFont) ()'
gmake[1]: *** [clicklabel.o] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/usr/ports/security/xca/work/xca-0.5.1/widgets'
gmake: *** [widgets/target.obj] Error 2

Yes, this is because gcc 3.4 is more picky about
this construct.....
Here is a patch:
(changes the variable-name "font" to "fnt")
Hope this pasted patch will work.....

While the diff formatting was mangled a bit by the forum, I could see what you were doing... and it worked. Thanks.
