Bugzilla Bug 88069

Hi,

msmtp-1.3.6 fails to compile on ppc64:

Okay, do you have gsasl/libgsasl installed (just to make sure?) I'm sure I've
seen this somewhere before... shame I can't remember :P

Just a guess: A version of libgsasl or gsasl < 0.2.4 is installed. The sasl USE
flag is not set, so this is not considered a problem. msmtp wrongly detects
this old version and tries to use it (version checking only works when
pkg-config is properly used with (lib)gsasl). 

Perhaps add a --disable-gsasl argument, and only change that to --enable-gsasl
when the sasl USE flag is set. 

Note that the configure options use -gsasl and not -sasl, so I'm not sure if 
$(use_enable sasl) is correct.

Note also that msmtp >= 1.3.6 depends on GnuTLS >=1.2.0, not 1.1.23, when the
gnutls USE flag is set.

By the way: 1.4.0 is released ;-)

msmtp-1.3.6.ebuild.patch

this patch solves this problem for me. If this is a sufficient fix, please
apply it. then I'll add KEYWORDS for ppc64 to the ebuild. :-)

sorry.. don't klick that submit button twice :-/

I'm going with a $(use_enable sasl gsasl) fix, because this does the same thing
and doesn't require a lengthy if.

Martin: Weird. I usually get a freshmeat announcement through on a new release.
I've got a feeling I'm forwarding them through to my old email address... I'll
fix that :)

Okay, so, to summarise, I've got the 1.4.0 ebuild finished and I'll be
committing shortly. Markus, if you could mark that ~ppc64, I would appreciate
it.

Fixed in CVS. added ~ppc64 to KEYWORDS.
