Description Nils Stöckmann 2011-01-17 11:48:33 UTC 
In the availible osmo-0.2.10.ebuild libsyncml is hardcoded-disabled by

       econf \
                --disable-dependency-tracking \
                --without-libsyncml

Those hardcoded configure flags should be translated into settable USE flags to make the functionality availible (and VISIBLE) to the average gentoo user.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. less /usr/portage/app-office/osmo/osmo-0.2.10.ebuild
2. compile osmo. 
Actual Results:  
No syncml availible.

Expected Results:  
SyncML-Support should be compileable

Comment 1 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-01-17 12:45:41 UTC 
There used to be an USE flag for syncml, it was removed on purpose because it was way too unstable 
(both from user and maintainer side, from user side the program crashed and from maintainer side the ebuild depends on badly written ebuilds in ~arch and adding this USE flag would prevent future osmo stabilizations)

so thanks for reporting, but wont be adding the USE flag, create your own overlay
with it
