Comment 8 Ken Pizzini 2019-02-16 20:54:43 UTC
Issue is that SSL_library_init() is now (openssl-1.1.1, maybe even -1.1.0) a macro defined in <openssl/ssl.h>, but fdm's configure.ac tries to find it using AC_SEARCH_LIBS, which assumes that it is an actual symbol in the .so for the library.

Proper fix is to have upstream use a different AC_SEARCH_LIBS invocation to detect the presence of the openssl library.  A work-around is to replace
"char SSL_library_init ();" with "#include <openssl/ssl.h>" in the "configure" script (this is brittle, however, in that a re-invocation of autoconf will clobber the "fix").

    net-mail/fdm: new version 2.0.
    
    This new version is intended to fix bug 677484 that is killing the
    build. The previous version is a few years old, and an upgrade is
    probably easier than patching. The new version also has some other
    improvements:
    
      * Courier support was dropped (upstream commit bc34a567).
    
      * The ./configure script now supports --enable-pcre instead
        of passing PCRE=1 to "make".
    
      * The build system installs stuff into the correct locations
        without us passing variables to "make install".
    
      * User creation has been moved to pkg_preinst() since the user
        is only needed at runtime.
    
      * Use EAPI=7.
    
      * Drop unused eutils, multilib, and toolchain-funcs eclasses.

It was easier to add v2.0 than to try to fix this in v1.9. Please test and let me know if it fixes the problem.

Seems to be working fine, thanks!

Glad to hear it. We'll also need fdm-2.0 to go stable when openssl-1.1 does, but for now this is fixed (you should be fine if you stick to either ~arch or stable). If anyone remembers, feel free to ping me about stabilization when the time comes.
