Bug 77109 – aspell-0.60.1.1 fails to compile with CXXFLAG -fvisibility=hidden

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Nir Lavi 2005-01-07 21:48:41 UTC]

While I was doing emerge -e world, when it reached the aspell emerging, the compilation failed. I've found out it's because of the CXXFLAG -fvisibility=hidden, and I've also made a patch for the ebuild I want to publish here

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add -fvisibility=hidden to your CXXFLAGS
2. emerge aspell
Actual Results:  
Aspell fails to compile

Expected Results:  
Aspell should compile successfully

Log of the failed compilation

This error I get when I try to compile Aspell with the CXXFLAG

A better idea is to not use silly CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS.

Thank you. Fixed for cvs.
