Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-04-10 11:41:13 UTC
As much as I can appreciate this is a forensics software, no ebuild should link statically without an USE=static opt-in, as that can create security issues (in this case, it statically link to libz for instance).

Also, please make sure to properly die on the install commands.

Patrick, if you are going to work on this I also need to point out the following:

 * QA Notice: Package has poor programming practices which may compile
 *            but will almost certainly crash on 64bit architectures.
 *
 * Function `rdd_test_get_writer' implicitly converted to pointer at twriter.c:85

this appears to be fixed in 3.0.4.   please open a new bug if that is not the case.
