Description Sven E. 2011-11-18 22:44:05 UTC
When trying to build net-misc/dropbear-2011.54 statically with zlib the build fails.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Just try to emerge the package
Actual Results:  
Build failure

Expected Results:  
Clean Build

It seems that dropbear lacks the dependency on zlib[static-libs] when building statically with zlib support. When I tried to add the dependency I got an error about EAPI-0 not supporting this.

Could the package maintainer possibly look into this and come up with a fix?

I just checked back on this. After emerging zlib with +static-libs the build works. So it is solely a dependency problem in the ebuild.

should be all set now in the tree; thanks for the report!

Commit message: Bump to EAPI=4 so we can depend on zlib[static-libs] for USE=static
