If zlib is around for one multilib variant and not the other, it'll mix-and-match, hence the confusing build failure rather than failing during configure. ping. This would help reduce confusion a fair bit when people are trying to get their way out of this rather common circular dependency. Any comments? The bug has been closed via the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=e50955de6b05b0e38dfdef3b07f58aac560397ca commit e50955de6b05b0e38dfdef3b07f58aac560397ca Author: Sam James <sam@gentoo.org> AuthorDate: 2021-12-03 18:52:49 +0000 Commit: Sam James <sam@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2021-12-03 18:52:49 +0000 media-libs/freetype: forbid use of internal/bundled zlib This makes error messages far more explicit if people are trying to circumvent the common circular dependency b/t harfbuzz + freetype but don't have zlib installed (possibly just missing for one ABI: abi_x86_32). No functional change for when zlib is installed as per the ebuild's dependencies.
