Bug 719368 – dev-perl/Net-LibIDN2-1.0.0-r1 - Error: no compiler detected to compile 'lib/Net/LibIDN2.c'. Aborting

• Status: RESOLVED CANTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Agostino Sarubbo 2020-04-25 09:51:34 UTC]

This is an auto-filled bug because dev-perl/Net-LibIDN2 fails to compile.
The issue was originally discovered on arm64, but it may be reproducible on other arches as well.
If you think that a different summary clarifies the issue better, feel free to change it.
Attached build log and emerge --info.

NOTE:
Feel free to adjust the summary to clarify the exact issue..

Looks like CFLAGS got mangled in the environment prior to building this package:
aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu-ld: unrecognised emulation mode: arch=native

That's one of the things that happens when you specify an LD that isn't a CCLD to things that expect LD to be a CCLD.

Not necessarily a user configuration failure, but its likely to be a messy problem.

I can reproduce with perl-5.30.3-r1 too

[Comment 5 Andreas K. Hüttel 2022-10-02 21:46:08 UTC]

Declaring this configuration as unsupported. Unset LD.
