Description R Stephan 2006-11-22 08:44:48 UTC

The package net-misc/neon-0.26.1-r1 was built with -expat but 'pkg-config --libs neon' still tells the system to link with -lexpat. This is actually an upstream bug, as usage of expat by neon depends on its existence at neon installation time, something clearly not wanted. Also, configure --with-expat is supported but not --without-expat.

I will report this now upstream. When it's fixed upstream, the ebuild simply needs to set --with or --without-expat according to the use flag.

No, I figured outz that there's a typo in the ebuild preventing it all from working already: the line 

myconf="${myconf} --with-xml2"

should read

myconf="${myconf} --with-libxml2"
