Bug 384057 – app-misc/golly-2.2 fails to build with headers from Perl 5.14

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Maks Verver 2011-09-22 09:50:18 UTC]

Linking fails.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. unmask and emerge perl-5.14
2. try to emerge golly
Actual Results:  
golly-wxperl.o: In function `RunPerlScript(wxString const&)':
wxperl.cpp:(.text+0xa54): undefined reference to `PL_thr_key'
wxperl.cpp:(.text+0xa73): undefined reference to `PL_thr_key'
wxperl.cpp:(.text+0xb71): undefined reference to `PL_thr_key'
wxperl.cpp:(.text+0xbd1): undefined reference to `PL_thr_key'
golly-wxperl.o: In function `xs_init':
wxperl.cpp:(.text+0xdef): undefined reference to `PL_thr_key'
golly-wxperl.o:wxperl.cpp:(.text+0xe13): more undefined references to `PL_thr_key' follow
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


Expected Results:  
Should compile, duh.

Needs a patch from CVS, which I will attach next.

I did write the patch and I am upstream. What exactly do you want me to link?

(Thanks for the update, by the way!)
