Bug 216279 – www-clients/mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.13 fails to build due to not linking vs libX11 or libXrender

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST

[Description Kevin Stangl 2008-04-05 04:18:49 UTC]

www-clients/mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.13 fails to build with unresolved symbol errors during linking due to not linking against libX11 or libXrender. I've attempted to revdep-rebuild (no broken linkage) and checked with qcheck for corruption in those two libraries (there was none). grepping the so-files for the symbol names also returns results; as they're stripped, I haven't checked with nm.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attempt to merge mozilla-firefox.

Expected results: Successful merge.
Actual results: Fails during linking.

build.log is attached. Please note the lack of -lX11 or -lXrender when attempting to use symbols in those libraries in the last call to the linker on line 11212.

Created attachment 148695 [details]
Build log (bzipped)

[Comment 2 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) 2008-04-05 08:30:26 UTC]

Please attach the log as plain text. No one wants to waste time downloading and unpacking a log file.

[Comment 3 Kevin Stangl 2008-04-05 17:28:43 UTC]

The build.log is 2.8MB; I can only attach files <=1.0MB, so I bzipped it, as has been done in a few other bugs. I'd have attached it otherwise. Want me to truncate it and attach it?

[Comment 4 Kevin Stangl 2008-04-05 22:05:09 UTC]

Asked in #gentoo; was told to put it on ompload. http://omploader.org/vZm1u/build.log

[Comment 5 Raúl Porcel (RETIRED) 2008-07-18 17:29:24 UTC]

Still happening?
