Think we should leave the "|| use uclibc" in no matter what?
Comment 2 Peter S. Mazinger 2004-12-07 05:24:42 UTC
tested c++ and ncurses on uclibc, it works, at least it creates the libncurses++.a
archive (do not know an app that uses this archive though to test)
Comment 3 solar (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-12-07 06:12:23 UTC
Fixed in CVS ncurses-5.4-r5
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Stopped abusing uclibc for cxx handling, the ebuild now uses nocxx bug #73633
- enable work around --program-prefix= as ncurses will pick up the arch tuple and put it in the program prefix incorrectly as arch-vendor-linux-<libc>-<app>
