Bug 23576 – tinycobol does not build with db4

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Paul de Vrieze (RETIRED) 2003-06-27 04:28:36 UTC]

Tinycobold has a hardcoded include statement for /usr/include/db3, while in its
DEPEND statement it specifies that it can run with >=db3

Since I don't feel qualified to test it with db4, I just changed the dependency.

[Comment 2 Paul de Vrieze (RETIRED) 2003-06-27 05:03:40 UTC]

It still does not compile when db4 is installed as it only looks for db3 and db, while it should look for db-3

Sorry, that wasn't clear from your first report. Maybe I'll check it next monday, still have some work to do with a much lower "nice" value.

I did not know that either until I checked myself. It is not that tinycobol is a very important package.

[Comment 5 Patrick Kursawe (RETIRED) 2003-07-07 23:50:59 UTC]

The configure script looks like it also checks for db4... investigating.

Silly me!
For some reason I put
1.1          (phosphan 12-May-03):      econf --with-libdb=3 
in the ebuild and then we wonder why it uses db3....
I have not the slightest idea any more why it was there, it seems to work without that and the package is still ~x86, so I just removed it.
Should be fixed.
