Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-05-11 13:00:49 UTC
The configure of your package checks for flex, even though your package might not contain .l files that flex uses to generate parsers. Your ebuild does not list a dependency on flex as per http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/misc/dindex/sys-devel/flex .

Either disable the flex test during configure to avoid false positive, or add the dependency upon flex if it's needed by your package.

Thanks in advance,
Diego

Fixed in cvs, w/o revision bump.

I had to patch configure.in in order to delete LEX test (there is no .l file in this package). I used eautoconf to regenerate configure script because when I tried to use eautoreconf, autoheader had a lot of "missing template" warnings. Call me lazy, but I don't want to spend time on useless things like adding descriptions to the AC_DEFINEs. ;)
