Bug 108423 – gnome-base/gdm-2.8.0.5 won't build w/ Perl ithreads

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Kurt Guenther 2005-10-07 12:48:07 UTC]

If libperl & perl where built with the ithreads use flag (as required for
crossover office), then gdm build will fail looking for perl xml. 

To reproduce, just add ithreads to /etc/make.conf USE variable and then: 

emerge libperl perl gdm


Here's my info w/o the ithreads flag set:

Here's the error, and I attached the Config.log

[Comment 4 Kurt Guenther 2005-10-08 08:56:07 UTC]

Oh, one last thing:  I think this is a more general Gnome issue.  I also had
problems emerging 'dia' when ithreads was on the USE variable. 

The error for app-office/dia-0.94-r3 is below: 

checking for snprintf... yes
checking for intltool >= 0.21... 0.30 found
checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl
configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool

!!! Please attach the config.log to your bug report:

There are probably other examples.

What about running perl-cleaner?

/me grumbles...
