Bug 250616 – ssmtp-2.61-r2 fails to compile on OSX

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo/Alt

[Description Sven Schwyn (svoop) 2008-12-11 13:39:57 UTC]

I try to update to gnupg-2.0.9-r1 which forces me to downgrade ssmtp (possibly due to the RDEPEND on virtual/mta):

[ebuild     UD] mail-mta/ssmtp-2.61-r2 [2.62-r1] USE="-mailwrapper%" 

This older version of ssmtp, however, fails to compile.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
emerge gnupg-2.0.9-r1
or
emerge mail-mta/ssmtp-2.61-r2
Actual Results:  
 * Messages for package mail-mta/ssmtp-2.61-r2:
[...]
i686-apple-darwin9-gcc   -o ssmtp ssmtp.o arpadate.o base64.o  -lssl
Undefined symbols:

      _smtp_open in ssmtp.o
ld: symbol(s) not found
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [ssmtp] Error 1
 * ERROR: mail-mta/ssmtp-2.61-r2 failed:

 * Call stack:

 *             environment:2444:     make etcdir="${EPREFIX}"/etc || die


Expected Results:  
Either ssmtp-2.61-r2 compiling or no dependency to this old version of ssmtp.

OSX only. Works on linux. 

I don't quite understand the problem because trying to install gnupg-2.0.9-r1 on my system (with ssmtp-2.61-r2) does not cuase a downgrade.

I got the downgrade with gnupg-2.0.9. It doesn't happen anymore with gnupg-2.0.9-r1.

However, ssmtp is still not installing. 2.61-r2 produces the above error and 2.62-* are all package masked.
