When I was try to install firefox and thunderbird their dependencies nss doesn't compile because libnspr.so.4 doesn't linked with libpthread:

After I manualy add "-lpthread" to link command line the nss compile without error.

"libnspr4.so.8" the right library name what from missing libpthread

Created attachment 292715 [details, diff]
nspr-4.8.9.ebuild.patch

Patch for nspr-4.8.9.ebuild to link nspr shared libraries with libpthread.

[Comment 3 Tibor Vago 2011-11-16 00:29:41 UTC]

Please test if posibble and apply on portage tree.

[Comment 4 Naohiro Aota 2011-11-29 11:02:40 UTC]

I can't reproduce the error...

$ ldd /usr/lib/libnspr4.so.8
/usr/lib/libnspr4.so.8:
	libthr.so.3 => /lib/libthr.so.3 (0x281dc000)
	libc.so.7 => /lib/libc.so.7 (0x28090000)

I have just added 4.9 to the tree, give it a spin, I have reworked pkg-config so you should get proper linking now.

[Comment 6 Naohiro Aota 2012-11-13 23:18:14 UTC]

Cannot reproduce. Reopen if you still have an error.
