Description Habeeb J. Dihu 2004-11-30 01:04:53 UTC
When building libselinux-1.18, gcc/binutils errors out with warnings about attributes not being available.  Apparently someone's run into and fixed this bug over at Debian:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=281464

The fix is rather trivial, I'll attach the relevent patch -- I'd appreciate it if it could be moved into the ebuild.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge libselinux
2. Boom...gcc/binutils crap out.
3.

Technically mips is not a supported selinux arch in Gentoo, so we wont be adding this to the ebuild.  However, I'll check with the Debian guys and try to get this upstream.
