#14216: patch to graphics/gd2 to do a better job linking against libiconv and gdlib-config reporting of same ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: ricci@macports.org | Owner: ricci@macports.org Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment (by ricci@macports.org): Gah, totally forgot about bumping the revision. Yeah, we should, the reason being the answer to your first paragraph... GD2 does link just fine against libiconv. gdlib-config doesn't properly report how the linking was done (before the above patch), IIRC, it reports the link against libiconv as the path to libiconv (i.e. "/opt/local/lib/libiconv.dylib" instead of "-L/opt/local/lib -liconv". This results in failures for other software (like p5-gd) that try to use gdlib-config - thus p5-gd had some special (and hard-wired) configure arguments to avoid using gdlib-config. You should be able to see this by running "gdlib-config --libs" before and after this patch. If you'd like me to bump the revision I will, just let me know. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/14216#comment:5> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
