Bugzilla Bug 22598

It seems that gnome-extra/libgda needs >=sys-libs/readline-4.2 to be compiled
(I've checked it from 0.9.0 to 0.12.1): 

gcc -march=i686 -O3 -pipe -Wall -Wunused -Wchar-subscripts
-Wmissing-declarations -Wmissing-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wpointer-arith
-Wno-sign-compare -o .libs/gda-config-tool gda-config-tool.o -pthread
-Wl,--export-dynamic  ../libgda/.libs/libgda-2.so -L/usr/lib
/var/tmp/portage/libgda-0.11.0/work/libgda-0.11.0/libsql/.libs/libgdasql.so
-lreadline -lcurses -lhistory /usr/lib/libpopt.so /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so
/usr/lib/libgthread-2.0.so /usr/lib/libgmodule-2.0.so -ldl
/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so /usr/lib/libxslt.so /usr/lib/libxml2.so -lpthread -lz -lm
gda-config-tool.o(.text+0x2329): In function `completion_func':
: undefined reference to `rl_completion_matches'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [gda-config-tool] Error 1

This is not caught by the configure script, but the missing 
"rl_completion_matches" is a >=readline-4.2 function (it was not "rl_" prefixed 
before). Hence, the "default-1.0" packages profile should probably masks this 
package because this profile is readline-4.1 based (there are already a few 
packages blocked for the same reason). 


Reproducible: Always

thanks for your report. i've added a workaround in libgda to disable using
readline when readline-4.1 is installed.
