Bug 604470 – net-mail/cyrus-imapd-2.5.10 [sieve] perl modules underlinked

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Maciej S. Szmigiero 2017-01-03 00:36:57 UTC]

If sieveshell is run an error about undefined symbol appears:
Can't load '/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.24.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/Cyrus/SIEVE/managesieve/managesieve.so' for module Cyrus::SIEVE::managesieve: /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.24.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/Cyrus/SIEVE/managesieve/managesieve.so: undefined symbol: sqlite3_open at /usr/lib64/perl5/5.24.0/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 193.
 at /usr/bin/sieveshell line 66.
Compilation failed in require at /usr/bin/sieveshell line 66.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/sieveshell line 66.

This is because managesieve perl module statically links in libcyrus.a, which
includes calls to SQLite in lib/cyrusdb_sql.c.

But this is not only a "sqlite" USE flag issue since this module also links in
statically libcyrus_min.a which includes calls to libpcre's posix module (in
lib/util.c).
Only because of bug #604466 this is currently linked (wrongly) to glibc instead.

Proposed, tested by me patch in an attachment.
