Bug 104868 – strongswan does not work with gawk-3.1.4-r4

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Lars Weiler (RETIRED) 2005-09-05 01:59:39 UTC]

With the current update to sys-apps/gawk-3.1.4-r4 I can't start strongswan any
more.  I tested with strongswan-versions 2.4.4, 2.5.0 and 2.5.2 (which isn't in
portage yet).

Downgrading to sys-apps/gawk-3.1.3-r2 helps.

This is the error:

strongswan 2.5.4 is now in portage which fixes the gawk issue.

[Comment 2 Lars Weiler (RETIRED) 2005-09-12 08:35:28 UTC]

Thanks, works!  According to the Changelog it was an upstream-issue.  I'll close
this bug.
