Created attachment 411878 [details, diff] Patch for claws-mail-3.11.1-r1.ebuild to require the static-libs USE flag for net-libs/libetpan Hi, claws-mail seems to require static libraries of net-libs/libetpan: checking libpisock/pi-version.h presence... yes checking for libpisock/pi-version.h... yes checking for unpack_Address in -lpisock... yes checking whether to use libetpan... yes checking for libetpan-config... /usr/bin/libetpan-config checking libetpan/libetpan.h usability... yes checking libetpan/libetpan.h presence... yes checking for libetpan/libetpan.h... yes checking whether libetpan-config hints compiles and links fine... no *** Claws Mail requires libetpan 0.57 or newer. See http://www.etpan.org/ *** You can use --disable-libetpan if you don't need IMAP4 and/or NNTP support. configure: error: libetpan 0.57 not found Emerging net-libs/libetpan with static libs fixes the problem. Attached the patch the ebuild.
Thanks for your report and the patch but I've successfully built claws-mail against libetpan without enabling the static-libs USE flag. So I suppose you have some other problem. Would you mind attaching the build.log file from a failed claws-mail build to this bug and post the output of emerge --info as well?
