Description Nils Ohlmeier 2002-05-24 20:25:38 UTC

I followed Spiders instruction for unmerging libiconv and rebuild glibc.
But now kdelibs 3.0.1 won't build. I diged down that it fails because my libxslt
still depend on libiconv.
But a rebuild of libxslt-1.0.17 fails with the following output:

make[2]: Entering directory
`/var/tmp/portage/libxslt-1.0.17/work/libxslt-1.0.17/libexslt'
/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link gcc  -march=i686 -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer
-Wall  -o libexslt.la -rpath /usr/lib -version-info 7:8:7 exslt.lo common.lo

-L/usr/lib -lxml2 -lz -lm -lm
grep: /usr/lib/libiconv.la: No such file or directory
sed: can't read /usr/lib/libiconv.la: No such file or directory
libtool: link: `/usr/lib/libiconv.la' is not a valid libtool archive
make[2]: *** [libexslt.la] Error 1

I wasn't able to rebuild it, but finaly i unmerged libxslt-1.0.17 (with the
builtin libiconv) and emerged it clean.

It isn't really a bug, and i found a workaround, but i wan't to document this
strange behaivor of libxslt because i haven't found it in bugzilla or the
mailinglists.

Thanks, another one to the list of packages that link libiconv.
