Can be worked around with lafilefilxer after rebuilding libedit twice, but shouldn't require this. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Seems to me that if you want USE=static you definitely also want USE=static-libs.
(In reply to comment #1) > Seems to me that if you want USE=static you definitely also want > USE=static-libs. Sorry, typo/thinko. dash is built with libedit -static, libedit is built with -static-libs, dash build fails.
should be fixed http://sources.gentoo.org/app-shells/dash/dash-0.5.6.1-r1.ebuild?r1=1.1&r2=1.2
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.4.4/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -ledit
you cant post a random snippet. you need to attach an actual full build log as well as the exact contents of libedit.

probably fixed now. not that people apparently look at these commits to point out errors in them ... http://sources.gentoo.org/app-shells/dash/dash-0.5.6.1-r1.ebuild?r1=1.2&r2=1.3

the ebuild no longer forces it http://sources.gentoo.org/app-shells/dash/dash-0.5.6.1-r1.ebuild?r1=1.3&r2=1.4
