Thank you. Compiles without error.

Mike, do I have to remove append-ldflags $(bindnow-flags) or not? I removed it
because of that QA notice...

That is a pretty obtuse "fix" for those of us who may be somewhat "ebuild"
challenged.

Something like "Edit the ebuild so the src_compile() function is as
follows:"...

As it is I have no idea whether to include the suggested changes before the
CC/AR lines, before the econf lines, before the emake lines, etc.  I also have
no idea whether the "inherit flag-o-matic" is a shell command or an edit to the
ebuild.

A better question might be how did this ebuild make it out of QA?  The problem
is the lack of the "-Wl,-z,now -shared" flags when producing the .so files
(which is why main shows up as undefined).  I don't see how it could ever have
worked.

Fixed in cvs, without revision bump.

Actually a QA notice was the cause of this mess (see bindnow-flags function in
flag-o-matic.eclass). I was just fixing a pam related bug when I saw that
notice. Since I'm not used to ignore such messages...

And yes, it worked for me, otherwise I wouldn't have committed it.

This solution works for me! ;)
Thanks

"This solution works for me" is pretty useless (as are previous comments
regarding CVS systems which some people may not understand (you want me to
integrate an ebuild system with a CVS system?  Just where is the documentation
on how to do that?).  

What would work is "here is an attached ebuild which should provide the proper
compile flags for building ppp".

I would not classify this bug as "RESOLVED FIXED" until there is either a
released ebuild which works or clear directions on how "less-than-wizard-level"
individuals modify their downloads so the package will compile.

Alin: previous policy was to force bindnow flags onto setuid binaries, but
we've decided this can be solved cleanly in the ldso itself, so there's no need
to change every ebuild out there

Robert: there is no "wizard" directions needed ... your tree is out of date. 
if you updated it, it'd be fixed.

Robert, please settle down. Stating that a working solution is useless to you
is not helpful - these people were only discussing *possible* solutions. Once
found, that solution would *of course* be integrated into the portage tree, as
was done in comment #10. If you want to wait until then (and I'm with you on
that), then by all means do so, but stop yelling at the people working to
create the fix.

Per comment #10, the fix is already in the tree (I've confirmed this, as I was
struck by the problem, as well). Just re-sync on go on with your life.

Mike, I'm with you on being patient.  But in this case comparing my current
emerge listings with previous emerge listings clearly identified the problem. 
(I keep all the previous emerge listings for packages).  You should see my
posts to the firefox forums where they have clearly not tested their memory
usage.

Not understanding the "in group" conversations regarding updates I requested an
update conversation which would really work.

There perhaps should be a level of update filter -- i.e. "I am an ebuild guru
and completely understand how this modification should be applied" vs. "I can
only barely work my way through ebuild (even though I might be classed as Unix
Guru) and so the suggested modifications are relatively useless.

You put a build script (and download directions) on the line which works or you
do not.  That is the bottom line.  If I as a "less than completely informed
user" who cannot download an ebuild which functions properly then such package
updates are relatively useless.

This bug, by design, transparently tracks the discussion in-progress, working
toward implementing a fix. I had previously thought that you misunderstood the
purpose of those comments, believing that they were instead intended to provide
instructions to *you*, the user, but based on your most recent statements, if I
read correctly, you're *actually* demanding that no such discussion take place
at all, and that the solution simply magically appear, and always as the very
first comment. That's unrealistic and naive.

In any case, this isn't the forum for this discussion, nor do I really wish to
continue it in another.

Oh, I see now. You would simply like a way to hide those less useful comments.
Well, that's not available, so please just be aware that many comments are
developer discussion (also, I'd submit that such filtering would likely result
in it *seeming* like there's no progress at all, thereby only increasing
frustration levels, so I'd oppose such a filter).

Mike, setting aside what I perceive as sarcasm, I am not trying to dictate the
direction of the conversation (and indeed I would find the conversation
educational if it were somewhat less cryptic).  My primary point is that if one
has an ebuild which actually works, it would not be unreasonable to post that
as an attachment.  I do have log files indicating that previous ebuilds did
work (and did get the flags set correctly) but no longer have those ebuilds
available.

So until someone either explains things in detail or posts a working ebuild (or
upgrades the package) I am stuck with the one which fails to work properly.

Alin already explained in comment #10 what the problem was.  if you cant grok
that, you can use the explanation in comment #13: `emerge --sync`.  if you
still cant grok that, ask on the forums or a gentoo-user mailing list for help.
