Ubuntu 25.10 EPICS modules will not compile

[Graeme Elliner via Tech-talk <tech-talk@aps.anl.gov>]

Hi

I’m trying to set up a new EPICS PC running the latest Ubuntu OS, I’ve downloaded the latest versions of epics-base and the basic modules (asyn, calc, sscan, StreamDevice, sequencer) from github

Epics base compiles fine, however I get pretty much the same error from all the modules ‘long int (*)(void)’ from incompatible pointer type [Wincompatible-pointer-types]

Here is my set up

OS = Ubuntu 25.10

Gcc= 15.2.0

$EPICS_HOST_ARCH = linux-x86_64

$EPICS_BASE=/opt/epics/base

$EPICS_SUPPORT = /opt/epics/modules
