Hi, wireshark won't compile, saying that perl is built with the minimal use flag. Only, it isn't.
******** The wireshark failure: !!! ERROR: net-analyzer/wireshark-0.99.3 failed. Call stack: ebuild.sh, line 1562: Called dyn_setup ebuild.sh, line 665: Called pkg_setup wireshark-0.99.3.ebuild, line 44: Called built_with_use 'dev-lang/perl' 'minimal' eutils.eclass, line 1605: Called die !!! dev-lang/perl-5.8.8-r2 does not actually support the minimal USE flag! !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. ********** perl USE flags: gentoo ~ # emerge -pv perl These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild R ] dev-lang/perl-5.8.8-r2 USE="berkdb doc gdbm -build -debug -ithreads -perlsuid" 0 kB ********* line in the wireshark ebuild that fails is this one: pkg_setup() { # bug 119208 if built_with_use dev-lang/perl minimal ; then Anyone seen this before? Am I being stupid (again) or is it a bug? And if so, where might the bug be - perl, wireshark, or the portage scripts? alan -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
