Description Marius Stoica 2018-02-21 09:15:23 UTC

When running ./bootstrap-prefix.sh, the script stops when compiling dev-perl/libintl-perl-1.280.0. The same thing happens with all the versions of libintl-perl that I tried. 


Reproducible: Always

Seems like it shouldn't use -lintl for your platform.  Somehow it thinks it needs it though.

What is the host OS here?

I tried installed this prefix on Mageia 5, updated to the latest version of all packages on the date that I reported this bug.

This section here in configure:

---
Warning: NAME must be a package name
Warning (mostly harmless): No library found for -liconv
Writing MYMETA.yml and MYMETA.json
---

Would have emitted the line:

---
Warning (mostly harmless): No library found for -lintl
---

If -lintl was not available.

That it detected it in configure, and then failed to find it at compile, smells spicy.

we'd need to revisit this using latest versions
