Bug 327265 – sys-libs/ncurses-5.7-r4 moves some libs to /lib, but libcurses.so link still points to /usr/lib

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Martin Jansa 2010-07-07 10:00:07 UTC]

Introduced by fix from http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=324999 and affects only -r4 version.

/usr/lib/libcurses.so -> libncurses.so.5.7
which doesn't exist, it's in /lib/libncurses.so.5.7

This is amd64 system so /usr/lib is actually /usr/lib64 and /lib is /lib64, but from this diff between -r3 and -r4 it's clear that it affects x86 too


-       # Move static and extraneous ncurses libraries out of /lib
-       dodir /usr/$(get_libdir)
-       cd "${D}"/$(get_libdir)
-       mv lib{form,menu,panel}.so* *.a "${D}"/usr/$(get_libdir)/
-       gen_usr_ldscript lib{,n}curses.so
-       if use unicode ; then
-               mv lib{form,menu,panel}w.so* "${D}"/usr/$(get_libdir)/
-               gen_usr_ldscript libncursesw.so
-       fi
+       # Move libncurses{,w} into /lib
+       gen_usr_ldscript -a ncurses
+       use unicode && gen_usr_ldscript -a ncursesw

Used USE flags for my build: cxx gpm unicode -ada -debug -doc -minimal -profile -static-libs -trace

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Rebuild ncurses
2. Build ie vim or any other app linking to libcurses
3.

Actual Results:  
vim configure fails to find -lcurses because of broken link to non-existent file in /usr/lib

Expected Results:  
libcurses.so points to existing file
