[gnutls-devel] Compilation error with gnutls src/common.c

[David Marx]

I get the following compilation error when trying to compile gnutls 3.3
with the Solarisstudio12.3 compiler.
   CC       common.o
"/scratch/dmmarx/12a/u/components/gnutls/gnutls-3.3.12/src/common.c", 
line 625:
void function cannot return value
The function print_cert_info returns void, and the function 
print_cert_info2 returns void.
I think gcc allows return of a void as an extension, but it seems our 
compiler doesn't.
The top of the gnutls tree appears to be the same code.  I suggest the 
following patch.

Thanks.
