Bug 158386 – fix dev-libs/libxml2 make test breakage

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ryan Hill (RETIRED) 2006-12-17 09:07:52 UTC]

tar-1.15.91 changed behaviour to not support shell-style globbing by default, which breaks the libxml2 testsuite.  well, it spews a ton of warning and error messages, then declares the test a success and moves on to installing anyways ;P.  this patch passes the --wildcards option to tar, which has been supported since tar-1.13.20.

I added a patch that modifies Makefile.in instead of Makefile.am to avoid the call to eautoreconf(), however please do submit your original patch upstream.

Thanks.
