  The code complained of is in:

k3b/src/plugins/decoder/musepack/k3bmpcwrapper.cpp:

K3bMpcWrapper::K3bMpcWrapper()
{
  m_input = new TQFile();

  m_reader           = new mpc_reader;
  m_reader->read     = read_impl;
  m_reader->seek     = seek_impl;
  m_reader->tell     = tell_impl;
  m_reader->get_size = get_size_impl;
  m_reader->canseek  = canseek_impl;
  m_reader->data     = m_input;

  m_decoder          = new mpc_decoder;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  m_info             = new mpc_streaminfo;
}

  The earlier warning complain of invalid conversions for each of the members in
the constructor, but the error complains about the new mpc_decoder instance. I
don't see what it is complaining about, it will take one of the smarter c++ guys
looking at the code.

  Filed as blocker since k3b must build in order for k9copy to build on nohal
systems:
