Bugzilla Bug 212970

Amanda won't compile complaining about missing symbols if you are using
-Wl,--as-needed in your LDFLAGS.

Reproducible: Always




Attached patch and ebuild diff fixes it for latest amanda in portage

Modifies two Makefile.ams to fix breakage

Patches the 2.5.2_p1-r3 ebuild

I've contacted upstream.  Will update this as appropriate, although hopefully
this can be put into a -r4 ebuild in main Portage tree.

The source patch is good, the ebuild patch is not ;)

You should apply patches in src_unpack, not src_compile, and you should be
running at least eautomake if you change the Makefile.am files.

in r4.

Oddly, both ebuilds are broken, now -- both my -r3 with the patches above, and
the in-tree -r4.  Not sure if this is an --as-needed problem or not, or maybe
something with portage/environment changes?  -r3 is currently installed, so it
compiled before.

Here's what I get:
