Bugzilla Bug 67310

From parted-1.6.10:
agaffney@kagome ~ $ ls -l /usr/lib/libparted*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     23 Oct 12 22:56 /usr/lib/libparted-1.6.so.0 -> libparted-1.6.so.0.0.10

From parted-1.6.15:
agaffney@kagome ~ $ ls -l /usr/lib/libparted*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     20 Oct 12 23:08 /usr/lib/libparted -> libparted-1.6.12.0.3
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     20 Oct 12 23:08 /usr/lib/libparted-1.6.12 -> libparted-1.6.12.0.3
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 279344 Oct 12 23:08 /usr/lib/libparted-1.6.12.0.3
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 409068 Oct 12 23:08 /usr/lib/libparted.a
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root    823 Oct 12 23:08 /usr/lib/libparted.la

There aren't any .so files in 1.6.15. Because of this, anything that checks for the existance of libparted can't find it.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge pyparted


Actual Results:  
checking for ped_device_open in -lparted... no
configure: error: *** parted lib not found



Expected Results:  
checking for ped_device_open in -lparted... yes :)

I'm gonna take a guess and say that it is one of the patches that break
something. If I unpack the tarball, run './configure' and 'make', and then look
in libparted/.libs, I see files with the .so extension:

kagome .libs # ls -l lib*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     23 Nov  4 21:52 libparted-1.6.so.12 ->
libparted-1.6.so.12.0.3
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 383290 Nov  4 21:52 libparted-1.6.so.12.0.3
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 468582 Nov  4 21:52 libparted.a
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     15 Nov  4 21:52 libparted.la -> ../libparted.la
-rw-r--r--  1 root root    841 Nov  4 21:52 libparted.lai
-rw-r--r--  1 root root   5676 Nov  4 21:52 libparted.o
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root     23 Nov  4 21:52 libparted.so ->
libparted-1.6.so.12.0.3

It appears to be 006_all_parted-1.6.6-amiga-10.patch that is causing problems.
I haven't been able to figure out why it causes problems, but if I hack the
ebuild to apply all patches except that one, the .so files are generated
correctly.

This can also be worked around by renaming the libparted files to their proper
names or creating symlinks to the proper names.

looks like a libtool issue

Yeah, it is a libtool issue.  I fixed it like this:

    gnuconfig_update
+    libtoolize --force --copy
+    aclocal-1.7
    autoconf

I'm not sure if there is a better way to do this, but it works here.

Seems a solution, our patchset is unrelated to the issue btw (tested w/out any
patch and isn't working properly too)

So is this fixed or....?

fixed in 1.6.15 in cvs
