Created attachment 641786 [details]
build.log.gz

This looks like the same fault as bug #723216, due to using the same base sources.

I already fixed that issue in: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/diff/dev-perl/Convert-UUlib/files/Convert-UUlib-1.71-tc-ar.patch?id=46d76f54d6fbf257d0f1233fbbf30b0bf0b564a3

However, the patch may need to be different for uudeview as it can't rely on AR being injected into Makefile's by Perl build tooling.

Somehow I missed the dupe in my initial search.
