Description Jordan Yelloz 2016-07-05 17:30:33 UTC

Recently I have been unable to build qemu 2.6.0 as it fails to configure with static-user USE flag. The following error message is printed at configure time of the static-user target:

sizeof(size_t) doesn't match GLIB_SIZEOF_SIZE_T.
You probably need to set PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR
to point to the right pkg-config files for your
build target

However, the error has little to do with any glib type-width macros. It is printed because the configure test attempts to link against libpcre which was not built with static-libs since the current glib-2.48.1 ebuild doesn't require it. However, it is a dependency of glib-2.0.pc file so it prevents static QEMUs from configuring against glib-2.0.

I manually re-installed libpcre with static-libs and qemu-2.6.0 was able to configure and merge safely with static-user.

[master bcea1ef] dev-libs/glib: libpcre static-libs USE needs to be sync with glib (#588082 by Jordan Yelloz), libintl is needed (#589336 by Gerhard Bräunlich).

This should be fixed for real this time in 2.48.2.
