Description Arthur Hagen 2007-02-27 01:37:49 UTC

Building net-nntp/inn-2.4.3 fails when it cannot find db3.[a|so]:




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure you're on a system without db3.[so|a]
2. emerge net-nntp/inn-2.4.3
Actual Results:  
gcc -shared  expire.lo interface.lo methods.lo ov.lo overdata.lo ovmethods.lo buffindexed/buffindexed.lo cnfs/cnfs.lo ovdb/ovdb.lo timecaf/caf.lo timecaf/timecaf.lo timehash/timehash.lo tradindexed/tdx-cache.lo tradindexed/tdx-data.lo tradindexed/tdx-group.lo tradindexed/tradindexed.lo tradspool/tradspool.lo trash/trash.lo  -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/var/tmp/portage/net-nntp/inn-2.4.3/work/inn-2.4.3/lib/.libs -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/lib/news/lib /var/tmp/portage/net-nntp/inn-2.4.3/work/inn-2.4.3/lib/.libs/libinn.so -ldb3   -Wl,-O1 -Wl,-z -Wl,now -Wl,-soname -Wl,libstorage.so.2 -o .libs/libstorage.so.2.0.0
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -ldb3
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


Expected Results:  
ebuild would pull in needed dependencies.


No problems with inn-2.4.1

Note:  berkdb installs libdb-3.so but not libdb3.so  -- perhaps this is part of the issue?

Comment 2 Arthur Hagen 2007-02-27 01:52:57 UTC

Further checking reveals that it appears that inn-2.4.3 needs the same patch as 2.4.1-berkdb.patch, which isn't provided for 2.4.3.

Does this patch fix it for you?

Could you try 2.4.3 again, I modified the ebuild to link against the current db that is symlinked.
