Description satmd 2013-06-16 08:41:59 UTC

Compilation of tpm-tools fails with:
/bin/sh ../../libtool  --tag=CC   --mode=link x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc  -g -O2 -Wall -Wreturn-type -Wsign-compare   -o tpm_unsealdata tpm_unsealdata.o ../../lib/libtpm_tspi.la -ltspi ../../lib/libtpm_unseal.la -ltpm_unseal -lcrypto 
libtool: link: cannot find the library `/usr/lib64/libtspi.la' or unhandled argument `/usr/lib64/libtspi.la'

The trousers ebuild explictely does a rm -f on this file during installation, because it "is unneeded".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install trousers 3.10
2. Try to install tpm-tools
3. compilation fails
Actual Results:  
/bin/sh ../../libtool  --tag=CC   --mode=link x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc  -g -O2 -Wall -Wreturn-type -Wsign-compare   -o tpm_unsealdata tpm_unsealdata.o ../../lib/libtpm_tspi.la -ltspi ../../lib/libtpm_unseal.la -ltpm_unseal -lcrypto 
libtool: link: cannot find the library `/usr/lib64/libtspi.la' or unhandled argument `/usr/lib64/libtspi.la'

Expected Results:  
completed build of tpm-tools

tpm-tools could need a bump, too: 1.3.6-r1 -> 1.3.8
This would not solve the breakage, but it'd be nice (the gold patch doesn't apply  on that one).

Removing the rm line from the trousers ebuild does solve it for me.

I cannot reproduce this... and if there is a problem it is in tpm-tools. I added a new version of tpm-tools, can you please check it out?
