Bug Description

when compiling gnu cash from SVN, the following compilation issue pops up:

/usr/include/regex.h:324: error: redeclaration of enumerator ‘REG_NOERROR’
/usr/include/libgoffice-0.8/goffice/utils/regutf8.h:17: note: previous definition of ‘REG_NOERROR’ was here
/usr/include/regex.h:325: error: redeclaration of enumerator ‘REG_NOMATCH’
/usr/include/libgoffice-0.8/goffice/utils/regutf8.h:18: note: previous definition of ‘REG_NOMATCH’ was here

This is due to an include file in liboffice-0-8-dev
$ apt-cache policy libgoffice-0-8-dev
libgoffice-0-8-dev:
  Installed: 0.7.8-1ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.7.8-1ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 0.7.8-1ubuntu1 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

The problem is known in Debian, a fix reported upstream (http://git.gnome.org/cgit/goffice/commit/?id=50b523fafa5664ecf5883cebbd7d72bbec7b1dc7)

What's needed is the application of this patch to Ubuntu Karmic package.

Thanks!
