When i try to emerge exim-4.24 i get this: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lgds collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [exim] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/exim-4.24/work/exim-4.24/build-exim-gentoo' make: *** [go] Error 2 !!! ERROR: net-mail/exim-4.24 failed. !!! Function src_compile, Line 152, Exitcode 2 !!! make failed -lgds? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
I had to ebuild exim-4.24.ebuild unpack then remove -lgds from Local/Makefile under the work dir then ebuild exim-4.24.ebuild compile, install, qmerge It is mentioned as being used by postgresql but there is no trace of it on a machine with postgresql installed.
Quote from Local/Makefile: '-lgds is for Interbase.' Just wanted to state that out :) Emerge shows the same behaviour for me. MySQL installed, neither postgresql nor interbase installed.

fixed in cvs. please test to see if it works now.
