Seen on sparc in response to a request from tanderson for checking RDEPENDS on cln. 1. If I have sys-cluster/openmpi-1.2.7-r1 installed, then I cannot build orsa at all with FEATURES=test (doesn't matter if I force USE=mpi or USE='-mpi'). It seems that orsa detects mpi in either event, but when it tries to build tests, it does not try to load it, and I end up with lots of errors like: ===================== xorsa_main.o:(.rodata._ZTVN3MPI8DatatypeE+0x3c): undefined reference to `MPI::Datatype::Free()' ../liborsa/.libs/liborsa.so: undefined reference to `ompi_mpi_double' ========================== Without FEATURES=test but with USE=mpi, orsa does build with mpi. 2. orsa does not build with cln and USE=cln (and sci-libs/cln-1.2.2 installed) because it can't find it. It seems to want cln-config, which does not exist. 3. Same with USE=ginac and sci-mathematics/ginac-1.4.3 (wants ginac-config) 4. orsa can't find FFTW: It says --- checking whether the FFTW library is installed... no In fact, fftw is slotted, and I have both: Thu Jul 3 12:06:04 2008 >>> sci-libs/fftw-3.1.2-r1 Wed Aug 27 13:39:44 2008 >>> sci-libs/fftw-2.1.5-r5 That said, I did give orsa a ~sparc keyword for further testing.
Just for reference: The reason 2) is happening is that cln-1.2.2 switched to a pkg-config file and removed cln-config. I'm working on a patch to fix 2).
orsa gone from the tree.
