Bugzilla Bug 174948

mail-mta/postfix-2.4.0 will not build with dev-db/tinycdb-0.76

the ebuild seems to assume that /usr/include/cdb.h doesn't exist (it does) and
has a workaroiund that looks for /usr/include/tinycdb.h which doesn't exist

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge =dev-db/tinycdb-0.76
2.USE="cdb" emerge =mail-mta/postfix-2.4.0
3.

Actual Results:  
>>> Unpacking postfix-2.4.0.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/mail-mta/postfix-2.4.0/work
>>> Source unpacked.
>>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/mail-mta/postfix-2.4.0/work/postfix-2.4.0 ...
 * build with dev-db/tinycdb
cp: cannot stat `/usr/include/tinycdb.h': No such file or directory


Expected Results:  
should have emerged properly

if the tinycdb hack is edited out of the ebuild then it fails with:

If you change CDB_LIBS="-ltinycdb" to CDB_LIBS="-lcdb", does it work ?

Cheers.

Yes. If I comment out:
cp /usr/include/tinycdb.h ${S}/src/util/cdb.h || die
and make the change you ecommend above it builds

This is fixed in Postfix-2.4.0-r1, please emerge --sync in a few hours to get
it.
Best regards, CHTEKK.

Maybe someone could actually remove the nonsense in stable as well, or
stabilize something newer.

2.4.(x>0) is stable now and doesn't have the problem.
