Hello Markus,

which perl version do you use?

Michael

Comment 4 Markus Walter 2010-09-21 18:51:47 UTC

I'm using current unstable perl, which is 5.12.2. USE-Flags are 'berkdb gdbm'.

Comment 5 Maks Verver 2010-09-23 02:10:49 UTC

This is because Perl currently needs to be built with ithreads USE-flag for Golly to compile, but Michael optimistically removed the dependency from the ebuild.

See also bug #323219 for more information.

Comment 6 Markus Walter 2010-09-23 07:25:37 UTC

I remerged perl with ithreads USE-flag enabled and now golly works fine.
