Bugzilla Bug 65341

Cannot emerge mc-4.6.0-r11 with USE="-slang"
There is something wrong in link proces with slang, which I don't want to use.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.USE="ncurses -X -slang" emerge mc
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
compile error

Expected Results:  
successfull build

maybe it is mc problem, not ebuild?
should i report it to GNU mc guys?

please post the actual compile error and emerge info(read the bug report
guidelines)

Here we go, this is actual compile error folowed by emerge info you've asked:
