• Status: UNCONFIRMED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

emerge build log

The build succeeds normally but fails with `static` USE flag set.

System: Portage 3.0.66.1 (python 3.12.7-final-0, default/linux/amd64/23.0/split-usr/no-multilib, gcc-13, glibc-2.40-r5, 6.12.1+ x86_64)

Several errors with the pattern: Using '...' in statically linked applications requires at runtime the shared libraries from the glibc version used for linking

With final error:

    ERROR: dev-vcs/fossil-2.22::gentoo failed (compile phase):
      emake failed

Build log attached.

The actual error is:

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/13/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lssl: No such file or directory
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/13/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lcrypto: No such file or directory
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/13/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lz: No such file or directory

Do you have openssl[static-libs] and zlib[static-libs]?

The ebuild has a "static" USE flag, but doesn't use it in DEPEND.
