Description philipplewe 2010-04-29 22:56:27 UTC
The ebuild media-gfx/exiv2-0.19 failes to install, because zlib.h could not be compiled.

I reemerged sys-libs/zlib-1.2.3-r1 in hope to fix the problem, but that didn't solve the problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -av1 media-gfx/exiv2

Actual Results:  
[...]
checking if zlib is wanted... yes
checking for inflateEnd in -lz... yes
checking zlib.h usability... no
checking zlib.h presence... yes
configure: WARNING: zlib.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: zlib.h:     check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: zlib.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: zlib.h:     section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: zlib.h: proceeding with the compiler's result
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to ahuggel@gmx.net ##
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------ ##
checking for zlib.h... no
checking zlib in /usr... failed
configure: error: either specify a valid zlib installation with --with-zlib=DIR or disable zlib usage with --without-zlib

Comment 5 Panagiotis Christopoulos (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-05 09:40:34 UTC
Can you give a try with =sys-libs/zlib-1.2.5-r2 and report if it works or fails?
Comment 6 Panagiotis Christopoulos (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-05 12:42:19 UTC
I resolve the bug as TEST-REQUEST. Reopen if it still fails. Thank you.
Comment 7 philipplewe 2010-05-08 00:33:58 UTC
With =sys-libs/zlib-1.2.5-r2 installed, it works!
Thanks for your help.
