• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

While trying to emerge gaim, aspell is built as a dependency.  The aspell build fails with the following output:

Adding a -lgpm to that line should do it.

[Comment 2 Bob Miller 2004-04-02 09:35:49 UTC]

Created attachment 28585 [details]
patch aspell.ebuild to link with gpm

This patch isn't the best way to fix this, but it'll allow people like me whose
portage is completely broken because of this bug to get working again.

Removing note about gaim since it really has nothing to do with gaim.
