Description Alexander Holler 2002-06-09 21:44:16 UTC
Building a ebuild for cyrus-imapd I've discovered that compile_et is broken:    compile_et: Couldn't find compile_et's template files.    That's true because they are removed in the ebuild. So either leave them or  remove compile_et too.    As I've read (somewhere about cyrus and compile_et), there seems to be some  differences about com_err and compile_et in the linux-community. So  cyrus-imapd uses it's own libcom_err.a if compile_et will not found.     I don't know if that could break anything in the system, because I don't know  anything about libcom_err.a. ;)

Workaround: Add "-I/usr/share/et" so gcc can find libcomm_err.h
Comment 2 Alexander Holler 2002-06-26 12:47:04 UTC
A workaround for a one line fix? 
 
And it is configure which searches for the existens of compile_et, so -I for 
gcc isn't that good.

You are right, of course, sorry. My fault.

I think I need to make bugs #3649 and #4156 dependant to this one and also
remove "-I/usr/share/et" from there.

net-mail/cyrus-imapd-2.1.5 has been added to portage.  It is patched to compile
properly.
