hmmm... do you know if the compiler and odcctools were built already? I could compile readline-5.2_p1 here on OSX 10.3.9
Yes both are present, I tried re emerging odcctools but the readline compile still fails at the same point
gcc -Lreadline -o rlfe rlfe.o pty.o -lreadline -lhistory -lncurses -lcurses /usr/bin/ld: multiple definitions of symbol _read_history /usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/../../../libreadline.dylib(readline.o_s) definition of _read_history readline/libhistory.a(histfile.o) definition of _read_history in section (__TEXT,__text) /usr/bin/ld: multiple definitions of symbol _write_history It is not using the prefixed tools somehow. And a powerpc-apple-darwin8/4.0.1 on OSX 10.3.9 is also a bit weird. I'm confused now.
does the problem persist? given the latest version of readline is now 5.2_p4-r00.1 and a lot has changed since...
I think this bug can be closed.
