Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2020-05-29 21:41:20 UTC
This is an auto-filed bug because x11-libs/libdockapp misses USE=static-libs and installs '.a' files.
The issue was originally discovered on amd64, but it may be reproducible on other arches as well.
The issue was discovered on the version reported in the summary but it may be reproducible on other versions as well. The best solution is avoid to build the '.a' files by touching the configure. In case the buildsystem makes your life hard, a good compromise would be just remove the files.

NOTE: If you want to change the summary, to avoid auto-filed duplicates, please at least keep the word 'static-libs'

Comment 2 Andreas Sturmlechner gentoo-dev 2021-03-16 16:12:42 UTC
Is static-libs really needed here? The idea is not to add this flag everywhere, but to first and foremost get rid of '.a' files.
