Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2020-08-16 09:40:25 UTC

Issue: net-analyzer/net-snmp misses USE=static-libs and installs '.a' files.
Discovered on: amd64 (internal ref: ci)

The best solution is avoid to build the '.a' files by touching the configure. In case the buildsystem makes your life hard, a good compromise would be just remove the files.

NOTE: If you want to change the summary, to avoid auto-filed duplicates, please at least keep the word 'static-libs'

There is another problem with net-analyzer/net-snmp-5.9: it failed to build if you disable "ipv6" use flag.

    net-analyzer/net-snmp: Run poor person's distclean

    The source tarball distributed through Github and Sourceforge contains
    amd64 specific binaries that should have been removed before packaging.

    While there, run `make sedscript` before other build targets.
