Bug 150583 – dev-libs/glib-2.12.4 fails compiling a test on g/fbsd

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo/Alt

[Description Javier Villavicencio (RETIRED) 2006-10-09 08:07:16 UTC]

glib fails linking errorcheck-mutex-test during the main compilation (not during test as in FEATURES=test).
The reason it fails on g/fbsd is that -pthread has to be specified during the final binary linkage, more info about 'why' here: http://xrl.us/r6gm
On older versions of glib, while linking these tests, those who required libgthread where implicitly adding $(G_THREAD_LIBS) to their link command, this new one (errorcheck-mutex-test) is not doing so, even as it adds libgthread as the others do.
The attached patch fixes this without requiring to run eautoreconf, because the automake rerun fails.
