libsexy is deprecated and all packages depending on this should be chased down and killed with fire. There's not a lot as can be seen at: http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/misc/rindex/x11-libs/libsexy or maybe we could patch the pkgconfig file :) As much as I'd like to say "let's kill it", it's better to patch the makefile for now if we can . All reverse dependencies checked, looks like major problem is with xchat-gnome, others (apart of vmware stuff confirmation) have a known fix +*libsexy-0.1.11-r3 (14 Sep 2011) + + 14 Sep 2011; Samuli Suominen <ssuominen@gentoo.org> + +libsexy-0.1.11-r3.ebuild, +files/libsexy-0.1.11-pkgconfig-pollution.patch: + Use Libs.private instead of Libs to pass libraries for static linking wrt + #380193 by Diego Elio Pettenò Changing summary to something else, and removing bug 354479 from Blocks. removed |
