Description Christophe PEREZ 2011-10-02 04:25:58 UTC

app-admin/webalizer 2.01.10-r15, r16 and r17 fails to compile saying can't find libgeoip.a not found event if geoip is installed.
2.21.02 installs fine.

Reproducible: Always

*geoip-1.4.7 (19 Apr 2011)

  19 Apr 2011; Jeroen Roovers <jer@gentoo.org> +geoip-1.4.7.ebuild:
  Version bump thanks to euscan. Add USE=static-libs.

simplest solution, webalizer should depend on geoip[static-libs]

@web-apps:

I recommend the following:
- change geoip dep in webalizer-2.01.10-r15 to geoip? ( dev-libs/geoip[static-libs] )
- open up a stabilisation request bug for webalizer-2.21.02, which just links fine against the dynamic lib (proper autoconf check)

workarounds for users:
- emerge geoip with USE=static-libs
- add app-admin/webalizer-2.21.02 ** to your /etc/portage/package.keywords and emerge the latest version

These are off the tree.  This is probably a dup of 396125 anyhow.
