Bug 134956 – sys-apps/mawk: links with hardcoded /lib/libm.so.6 path

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Natanael Copa 2006-05-30 13:48:46 UTC]

gcc -march=i386 -Os -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -DMAWK -I..   -c -o rexp3.o rexp3.c

gcc: /lib/libm.so.6: No such file or directory
make: *** [mawk] Error 1

This is caused by the line:

  export MATHLIB="/lib/libm.so.6"

in the ebuild. To fix, replace "/lib/libm.so.6" with "-lm".

  sed -i 's:/lib/libm.so.6:-lm:' mawk-1.3.3.ebuild

Please apply.

Jon,
26 months ago you made a change to the ebuild to attempt to correct the 
problem in bug #45636 but you used a hardcoded full path.
