build log for nm-applet-0.8.4

gnome-extra/nm-applet-0.8.4 fails to compile on both of my ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" gentoo systems.

It fails thusly:

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.5.3/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: note: 'sincos@@GLIBC_2.2.5' is defined in DSO /usr/lib64/libm.so so try adding it to the linker command line
/usr/lib64/libm.so: could not read symbols: Invalid operation

The latest version (0.9.4.1) compiles just fine.

It looks to me like your system is having big problems, not this package in particular.

How so?  I run a GNOME-centric mostly stable system on two different PC's (one is AMD+nvidia, the other a laptop with an Intel i3).  Someone else here has the same problem (the OP):

To clarify, I'm having this problem on both my AMD system and my Intel laptop.  I can give you the make.conf and package.keywords files for both if you think they would be useful in tracking down any problems.

nm-applet-0.8.4 had certainly built successfully a year ago or so. I am guessing that the sudden appearance of this linking failure was caused by a recent change in some dependency of nm-applet that moved an "-lm" in a pkgconfig file from the Libs line to the Libs.private line.

Fixed in cvs without a revision bump, since users who had successfully emerged nm-applet-0.8.4 have no need to rebuild it.

Thanks for reporting the problem!
