We need to have USE=static-libs because this package install '.a' files: /usr/lib64/libmxml.a /usr/lib64/libmxml.so /usr/lib64/libmxml.so.1.5 /usr/lib64/libmxml.so.1 This ebuild had static-libs IUSE, I don't know why it losed the use.
(In reply to comment #0) > This ebuild had static-libs IUSE, I don't know why it losed the use. Looking at the history it seems that static-libs support (or better yet: static-lib-removal support) was added only to the older (but stable) 2.2.1 ebuild and not the 2.6 ebuild, that the current 2.7 ebuild is based on. Will be fixed ...
Created attachment 339228 [details] modified ebuild Please review the attached new ebuild. I've changed three things: 1.) support for static-libs along the lines of the 2.2.1 ebuild 2.) updated $HOMEPAGE 3.) cleaned the emake line a bit (removed explicit libmxml.a parameter), since doc/mxml.man depends on libmxml.a it is built anyways Are you proxy-maintainer supporting guys reading this? Thanks!
