• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST

The output:

Looking at the main Makefile there is the target elinks_DEPENDENCIES that contain many (correct) library target and -liconv: I've tried to remove this from the Makefile and I issued a "make clean; make", but I obtain the following error:

Fixed all errors with a little patch for the configure script, now compile fine for macos too.
The collision protect block the merge for this 2 files written by glib and texinfo:

existing file /usr/lib/charset.alias is not owned by this package
existing file /usr/share/locale/locale.alias is not owned by this package

The first one seems doesn't matter if overwriten (the file contains only comments), the second one have this diff:

[Comment 4 dario 2004-08-31 10:56:43 UTC]

was forgetting, works fine in terminal.app (without mouse handling) and in xterm :)

I have enabled the X and zlib use flags
