Bug 413031 – =sci-libs/netcdf-4.2 does not compile with useflag -hdf5 set

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description pawstar 2012-04-21 23:50:21 UTC]

=sci-libs/netcdf-4.2 will not compile with -hdf5 useflag if hdf5 libraries are not installed.  If hdf5 is installed, I assume that hdf5 support will get compiled into netcdf despite requesting that it be not.  The problem is an error in the ebuild, where a dash is missing between netcdf and 4 in the src_configure() function.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure hdf5 is not installed
2. USE="-hdf5" emerge =sci-libs/netcdf-4.2
3. compile fails
Actual Results:  
=sci-libs/netcdf-4.2 does not compile with -hdf5

Expected Results:  
=sci-libs/netcdf-4.2 compiles without hdf5 support

strange, configure says '--enable-netcdf4  just a synonym for enable-netcdf-4'. anyway, fixed, thanks.
