Bug 112795 – net-mail/ssmtp export tc variables for the sake of crosscompiling

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) 2005-11-17 03:34:33 UTC]

The attached patch applied over current ebuild (and last masked ebuild) 
exports CC and LD to allow the package to cross-build (and to cross-distcc 
it). 
 
Thanks, 
Diego

I have incorporated this enhancement into a new build I wrote that applies a 
patch that sort of fixes an upstream bug ("ssmtp: uninitialized variable causes 
garbage in rewritten From: header"[1]).

It would also be nice to have an assigned maintainer for this system package, 
and arguably a metadata.xml.

Source patch and ebuild patch to follow.

Basically adds a catch-all.
