Description Yang Zhang 2009-10-02 03:47:37 UTC
dev-libs/mini-xml with version 2.5 or higher supports multi-threading through a configure switch "--enable-threads". However, the ebuild in tree does not supports this switch and build the threads support silently. Would you please add an optional USE for this feature? Thanks.

Reproducible: Always

Please try
EXTRA_ECONF="--enable-threads" emerge -1 =dev-libs/mini-xml-2.5
and report back if it works.

This works for mini-xml-2.6, which is not currently in the portage. Additionaly, EXTRA_ECONF="--disable-threads" actually disabled threads support in my test. A version bump requist is filed (see http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=287312). For mini-xml-2.5, the pkg-config result of mini-xml is unusable due to bug http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=287295.

Applied in dev-libs/mini-xml-2.6
Thanks for the heads up
