It's in -ltinfo!

Additionally, the ebuild should depend on sys-libs/ncurses to begin with.
Comment 2 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-02-08 10:18:10 UTC
Oh, that's odd. It checks for tgoto and it links against -l{termcap}, but with --as-needed it seems it doesn't actually use it (tgoto or anything else that the termcap library defines).

Perhaps a better patch would remove the configure check and subsequent linkage (basically all the lines in this patch after AC_SUBST(EXTRA_DEFS)), since without --as-needed you'd end up with an unneeded library linked in.

I'm not seeing the problem here.

checking for tgoto in -lncurses... no
checking for tgoto in -lcurses... no
checking for tgoto in -ltermcap... no
checking for tgoto in -lterminfo... no
checking for tgoto in -ltermlib... no
checking for readline in -lreadline... yes

caribou ~ # ldd /usr/lib/libguilereadline-v-17.so | grep tinfo
	libtinfo.so.6 => /usr/lib64/libtinfo.so.6 (0x00007f0536dff000)

Patch is harmless though.

Fixed in 1.8.8-r2.
