Bug 642466 – dev-perl/Perlbal-XS-HTTPHeaders: undefined symbol: __gxx_personality_v0

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Kent Fredric (IRC: kent\n) (RETIRED) 2017-12-28 00:39:07 UTC]

In attempting to enable tests, I discovered this package to be broken and its not clear how or for how long.

/usr/bin/perl -MPerlbal::XS::HTTPHeaders

There are no reverse dependencies so this might be a candidate for future removal if this can't be easily fixed.

Interestingly, cpanmatrix tests are green... even though this package saw its last release in 2010...
