configure fail if spidermonkey is installed Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -1 spidermonkey 2. emerge -1 gjs 3. Actual Results: configure fail : checking for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-genhtml... no checking for genhtml... /usr/bin/genhtml checking for js-config... /usr/bin/js-config checking for mozilla-js >= 1.9.2 ... configure: error: >= 1.9.2 is required Expected Results: gjs is merged I have found in configure.ac that : if js-config binary (which come from spidermonkey) is found JS_PACKAGE var is not set. So the next check fail because JS_PACKAGE is empty I don't need spidermonkey, then unmerged it and it works now
The initial problem of setting js-config being autodetected is fixed by just setting JS_CONFIG="". However, while linking, ld picks up the libmozjs.so in /usr/lib/ instead of the one in /usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-*/lib/ . If I can't figure this out, I'll have to add a blocker for spidermonkey to the ebuild...
This is sort of fixed now, thanks for reporting.
