Bug 260060 – kdelibs does not build against uclibc

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ryan Hope 2009-02-23 20:45:38 UTC]

kdelibs-4 does not build against uclibc because uclibc does not provide dn_skipname...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.install 2008 uclibc stage3
2. emerge kdelibs

Actual Results:  
emerge fails when it gets to kio/misc/kpac/discovery.cpp

Expected Results:  
kdelibs should build as expected

not building kpac solves this problem

A patch to modify the kdelibs ebuild to apply the remove kpac patch if ELIBC==uclibc

Well, the real solution would be to use some uclibc (common in glibc as well) equivalent for dn_skipname instead stripping-off kio functionality that may have in theory unpredictable consequences.

Hi,
tiny suggestion.
Sent this to upstream.
They should fix this not us.

When you open upstream bug add link to it here. We will apply that when upstream applies that too :]
