patch fixing threaded-resolver build error

with this patch dropped into 
/etc/portage/patches/net-misc/curl-7.55.1

it builds fine without ares.

Tried the patch in comment 4, but didn't work for me. Is this gcc-7.1 related?

I don't think so. I'm on GCC 6.4.0 and I have the same issue.

The patch works, btw. Is it actually applied? When you emerge, you should see this:

>>> Preparing source in /var/tmp/portage/net-misc/curl-7.55.1/work/curl-7.55.1 ...
 * Applying curl-7.30.0-prefix.patch ...      [ ok ]
 * Applying curl-respect-cflags-3.patch ...   [ ok ]
 * Applying curl-fix-gnutls-nettle.patch ...  [ ok ]
 * Applying enable-threaded-resolver.diff ... [ ok ]
 * User patches applied.

If you don't see the last two lines, then you didn't copy the patch to the correct location. It needs to be:

  /etc/portage/patches/net-misc/curl-7.55.1/enable-threaded-resolver.diff

And have the correct permissions too. So it's best to do a "chmod +r enable-threaded-resolver.diff" first.

Comment 8 Michal Jakubowski 2017-08-16 20:14:50 UTC

The patch looks fine.

Comment 9 Robert Crawford 2017-08-16 21:32:37 UTC

Sorry- I just made a stupid mistake, and put the patch in the wrong place.
Forgot to make a curl-7.55.1 directory in /net-misc. patch worked perfect-  Thanks guys!
