Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

I'm reporting this bug because the package in summary fails to build when forcing --as-needed on through spec files (check out http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2008/11/14/problems-and-mitigation-strategies-for-as-needed for details).

Check the attached build log.

Thanks,
Diego

i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -Wl,-O1 XWin.o Icon.o Bar.o IconLoader.o OptParser.o SuperBar.o SuperIcon.o Main.o `imlib2-config --libs` -o wbar
XWin.o: In function `XWin::bottomLayer()':
XWin.cc:(.text+0xa3): undefined reference to `XInternAtom'

Looks like correct order to me.

What does ´imlib2-config --libs´ return to you? Also, i'd like to see 'emerge -pv imlib2' output.

Thanks.

It might have been missing X USE flag on imlib2 when I built this. On the other hand it does not seem to _need_ the X USE flag for imlib2, just adding a -lX11 or -lXext, whatever provides the symbol, on the commandline.

As I suspected, will look.
