Bug 4274 – lftp won't compile

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Julien Ponge 2002-06-28 02:13:34 UTC]

I have tried numerous times emerging lftp but the building fails at the 
linking stage. Can't see why it fails thought. I use GCC 2.95.3. Maybe there's 
a missing dependency or something like that.

Quite Weird...

Wanna gimme versions of:
portage
libtool

and wanna send me:
emerge -up world &> updateme.log

Then...
Update recently? Update portage to 2.0.9 (At least 2.0.8)
and try it again... and let me know.

The problem you seem to be having is that libtool is getting passed your 
CFLAGS, which it isn't happy about, but there's no reason for that to happen. 
It's entirely within the package itself. I can't verify it here on my 2.95.3 or 
3.1 gcc systems.

Sorry about the delay... Your message got lost in my email. I meant for you to 
post the info here, but I guess I wasn't quite clear on that.

Anyway... I'm guessing that your issue is with an alias of 'gcc' being used 
instead of 'g++'... You can rsync and update gcc, or run this:

source /etc/make.conf
ln -s /usr/bin/g++ /usr/bin/${CHOST}-g++

No response for a good long time... Closing.
