Hi, (I seem to be having some trouble getting messages to post on the list so I may be duplicating an earlier post. Apologies if this is the case.) I am compiling CVS tip Asterisk on a fresh CentOS 3.4 install. I got this warning: make ast_expr.a make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/asterisk' bison -v -d --name-prefix=ast_yy ast_expr.y -o ast_expr.c ================================================================================NOTE: Using older version of expression parser. To use the newer version, NOTE: upgrade to flex 2.5.31 or higher, which can be found at NOTE: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=72099 ================================================================================ My bison is this: bison (GNU Bison) 1.875c (Which appears to be ancient because the s/f link above shows the 2.5.31 flex archive date as 2003-03-31). What's the risk of ignoring this warning? Rhetorical question: why is CentOS using a moldy old flex/bison package? Thanks, -- Mike

Ignoring that warning on OS X causes the compile to fail. Upgrading bison worked for me. Michael
upgrade just ./conifure and make it....... Centos version is older... Try upgrading.....
