Description Constantine Bytensky 2016-02-07 09:51:29 UTC 
When I tried to build www-client/firefox-44.0 with [system-libevent] USE flag, I got error included such message:

/var/tmp/portage/www-client/firefox-44.0/work/firefox-44.0/ipc/chromium/src/base/message_pump_libevent.cc:29:15: error: '_EVENT_SIZEOF_PTHREAD_T' was not declared in this scope
 CHECK_EVENT_SIZEOF(PTHREAD_T, pthread_t);
               ^

Then I rebuilt dev-libs/libevent with "threads" use flag and Firefox was build successfully.

Apologies for missing this until now.  I'll confirm, and ensure the dependency on dev-libs/libevent requires USE="threads" on the next version bump.
Comment 2 Ostashevskyi Viktor 2017-02-25 23:20:36 UTC 
Problem is still present with firefox-51.0.1.

mozconfig-v6.51.eclass needs to be fixed.

If you feel I have closed your bug and it is still a current issue, please reopen and update it completely. We will not work bugs that have no ebuild in tree any longer or can not be reproduced with a current system.

Thank You for your support and understanding
