Bug 288833 – net-misc/memcached-1.4.2 fails to build (--as-needed ??)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Priit Laes (IRC: plaes) 2009-10-13 08:05:57 UTC]

I assume this is caused by LDFLAGS="-Wl,--as-needed"

I got same error with as-needed compiler spec (http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/asneeded.xml)

It compiles fine without --as-needed

I am not sure whether this will work on ~BSD systems. If someone could verify or (even better) correct it, I would be grateful.

rediffed and commited for 1.4.4.
