Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev

2020-05-26 07:12:12 UTC

This is an auto-filed bug because sci-libs/cln misses USE=static-libs and installs '.a' files.
The issue was originally discovered on amd64, but it may be reproducible on other arches as well.
The issue was discovered on the version reported in the summary but it may be reproducible on other versions as well. The best solution is avoid to build the '.a' files by touching the configure. In case the buildsystem makes your life hard, a good compromise would be just remove the files.

NOTE: If you want to change the summary, to avoid auto-filed duplicates, please at least keep the word 'static-libs'

    sci-libs/cln: fix build failure
    
    autotools-utils can do out-of-source builds,
    and it does by default, but we need to invoke
    autotools-utils_src_configure for it to have
    the right behaviour.
    
    This is counterintuitive given more modern
    examples like CMake use src_prepare for the
    same functionality.
