I believe this is fixedin 4.2, please re-open if it isn't.

Thanks,

William

My attempt to change the state with pybugz failed.

I see that the build log for this bug was for brltty-4.1, is it still an issue with 4.2?

Thanks,

William

brltty-4.2-fix-ldflags.patch

Fixes the LDFLAGS issue for brltty-4.2.
This patch may not be suitable for upstream.
It will work for other Linuxes (?Linuxen?), and it might even work for the
BSDs.  But I don't know anything about the many other platforms supported
by brltty.

This patch has been added to the tree, thanks much, please be sure to send it upstream.

I am reopening this bug.

I just attempted to emerge brltty-4.2 again and it failed. I will attach
the build log.

This is fixed.

eautoreconf was running autoheader, which was breaking the build since
brltty doesn't use all of the autotools. I reworked the ebuild to use
eautoconf instead.
