Description Maciej S. Szmigiero 2013-06-15 20:24:05 UTC

dev-libs/libedit-20120311.3.0 widechar version needs a patch from http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-bugs/2013/05/26/msg033128.html in order to not to spin on EOF.

Currently one of victims is dev-db/firebird-2.5.2.26539.0 - it spins during build on "echo create database \'msg.fdb\'\; | ../gen/firebird/bin/isql_static" inside libedit.

When above patch is applied to libedit firebird is able to build successfully.


Reproducible: Always

I've just committed 20130611.3.1 which should already solve this issue. I'm considering stabilizing this version rather than containing a patch for older versions.
