Description Tim Taubert 2010-01-07 10:38:54 UTC 
although the spidermonkey js library is properly installed it is not recognized by configure:

checking for JS_NewContext in -ljs... no

adding "--with-js-lib=/usr/lib" to the econf command in the ebuild solves this problem for me.

Reproducible: Always

configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-js

Additionally, this works for me (and for the arch testers), so I'm not sure why you need this?
Comment 2 Tim Taubert 2010-01-14 09:45:22 UTC 
The option's name is "--with-js-lib" and without this it won't compile on my PC. I don't know why - it just fixes it for me.

Ah, sorry for not being able to read...

Fixed in CVS, thanks for the bug & solution.
