Description John Doe 2008-07-03 18:07:06 UTC

when emerging cryptsetup v 1.0.6 the compilation process fail due to the dependency libgpg-error not being fulfilled

1.Install Gentoo via 2008 beta 2 live cd (xserver, xfce, gdm)
2.Preform emerge sync
3.Preform emerge -avDNu world
4.cryptsetup 1.0.6 compilation fails

workaround is to obviously to emerge libgpg-error before preforming a world update

This is an ebuild problem, not a security issue (that's what the Security component is for). Changing Component and assigning to maintainers.

However, for me at least /usr/lib64/libgpg-error.a does not exist as is required by cryptsetup.  I tried to link libgpg-error.so to libgpgerror.a with a resulting failure of cryptsetup saying a static link was impossible with a dynamic object.

Reassigning back to herd since Benjamin has retired as a Gentoo developer (#89719).

cryptsetup already has DEPEND on dev-libs/libgpg-error
