Beginning with 1.10.0, dev-libs/leveldb[-snappy] still compiles with snappy support (at least if app-arch/snappy is installed).
Looks like the ability to disable snappy and tcmalloc was added by the leveldb-1.9.0-configure.patch file, which was dropped in 1.10+ for some reason.
Yep, the build configure script (build_detect_platform) runs tests and adds them unconditionally should you have snappy (or tcmalloc) installed. Suggested approach: 1. Call build_detect_platform from src_configure 2. Remove the call to it from Makefile 3. sed away -l/-D snappy/tcmalloc if not in IUSE 4. Profit Thoughts?
Created attachment 397446 [details] leveldb-1.18-r1.ebuild implemented my above suggestion
Created attachment 397448 [details, diff] leveldb-build_detect_platform.patch
Comment on attachment 397446 [details] leveldb-1.18-r1.ebuild please post diffs rather than entire files. we can't easily review this.
should be all set now in the tree; thanks for the report! Commit message: Fix USE=-snappy handling http://sources.gentoo.org/dev-libs/leveldb/files/leveldb-1.18-configure.patch?rev=1.1 http://sources.gentoo.org/dev-libs/leveldb/leveldb-1.18-r1.ebuild?rev=1.1
