Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Marcin Deranek 2020-06-11 07:28:42 UTC
Disabling ncurses (USE=-ncurses) works around the problem. This library seems to be only needed by finch.
Comment 2 Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2020-06-11 09:02:06 UTC
libgnt was bundled (directory finch/libgnt/) in version 2.13.0, but not longer is in 2.14.0. See the following upstream commit:
https://bitbucket.org/pidgin/main/commits/ee8abde66038

Also here:
https://bitbucket.org/pidgin/libgnt/src/default/
"Beginning with version 2.14.0, the code has been moved to a separate repository and so the tag and the version will remain in sync."

Or one can add --disable-consoleui to configure
Comment 4 Joakim Tjernlund 2020-06-11 10:23:20 UTC
Maybe add append-cflags -Wno-deprecated-declarations ?
These warning just hides any other warnings that might need attention.
Comment 5 Joakim Tjernlund 2020-06-11 10:26:08 UTC
Can I also ask, what is the ${PN}-eds-3.6.patch ?
It has been Gentoo pidgin for a long time and there is no explanation
what it does.
Comment 6 Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2020-06-11 12:05:53 UTC
So I haven't found official libgnt source tarballs yet. Trying to compile a hg "release-2.x.y" branch checkout results in ncurses linking issues. Compiling the default branch does not fails but I have yet to find out if we can use that branch for pidgin-2.14.x.

This is the current build issue (ncurses linking fails). Patches are welcome.
