Bugzilla Bug 95139

Looks like, the headercache cannot live without gdbm support. :)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set USE="-gdbm"
2. emerge =mail-client/muttng-20050325
Actual Results:  
hcache.o(.text+0x2e7): In function `mutt_hcache_open':
: undefined reference to `db_env_create_4001'
hcache.o(.text+0x33b): In function `mutt_hcache_open':
: undefined reference to `db_create_4001'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [muttng] Error 1

Expected Results:  
Force gdbm-support or disable headercache.

Did you try revdep-rebuild? 

Created an attachment (id=60681) [details]
patch for configure.in

variable name is not correct, so it ends with a version mixture of header files
and libs.

Only happens when more than one sys-libs/db version is installed.

same is true for mutt (but our mutt does always use gdbm).

seems to be working fine with muttng-20050809.ebuild.  I just tried:

   USE='-* berkdb' sudo emerge muttng

Please re-open if there's still a problem and I'm just missing it.

(In reply to comment #3)
> same is true for mutt (but our mutt does always use gdbm).

with 1.5.9 we can select berkdb as backend for header cache so this bug is
introduced in mutt too. (A patch is only needed for 1.5.9. It is fixed in
1.5.10.)

*** Bug 102352 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

ok, I disabled the berkdb stuff in 1.5.9 now.  hcache now depends on USE=gdbm. 
we'll re-enable it for 1.5.10
