Comment 5 JoMull01 2021-08-03 15:09:38 UTC
Good Morning. I apologize for my delay in responding. The problem that you found seems to be caused by the upstream including the wrong header file. It seems that GCC automatically includes the correct header and clang doesn't. Since it seems that clang would take a long time for me to set up, I hope that you would be willing to test my theory. This can be done in one of two ways. 
   First, you could add the patch that I have attached to ${YOUR_GENTOO_REPO}/net-im/toxic/files/ and the updated ebuild to ${YOUR_GENTOO_REPO}/net-im/toxic/ and let me know if that fixes the error. BTW, you may need to run "#repoman manifest" in the ${YOUR_GENTOO_REPO}/net-im/toxic/ directory before portage will use the new ebuild. Also, this change should be overwritten by your next sync. 
   Alternatively, you could download toxic directly, extract it and try to build it with clang. If the build fails, then add "#include <linux/limits.h>" to the following files: src/autocomplete.c, src/file_transfers.h and src/settings.h. Then try the build again. 
Let me know the results of whichever method you elect to try. Thanks for your assistance.
Comment 6 Marinus Savoritias 2021-08-04 11:27:47 UTC
Thanks for the reply. I tried both of the solutions.

the first one you said with the custom repository worked. toxic-0.10.1 is installed. I will attach the build log in case you find anything interesting.

The second solution didnt seem to work with the git repository.
I will attach the output.

Let me know for anything else I can help with.

    net-im/toxic: Fix incorrect header file inclusion
    
    It seems that the upstream developer believes that
    the macros NAME_MAX and PATH_MAX are defined in
    <limits.h> when they are really defined in
    <linux/limits.h>. More interestingly, it seems
    that GCC automatically corrects for this while
    clang does not. This commit adds patches necessary
    to fix this as well as some minor fixes.
