Package: xchat-gnome Version: 1:0.30.0~git20131003.d20b8d-2 Severity: important Tags: patch User: debian-p...@lists.debian.org Usertags: perl-5.20-transition
This package silently drops its libperl linkage when built with perl_5.20.0-1 from experimental: checking whether Perl support is requested... autodetect checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl configure: WARNING: Perl headers not found, disabling perl support This is because the probe in configure.ac now needs to either link with libperl or #define PERL_NO_INLINE_FUNCTIONS. See #752354. I'm attaching Damyan Ivanov's patch from #752354, which uses the first approach. -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org
Description: configure.ac: fix perl header test for perl 5.20 The PL_memory_wrap and Perl_croak_nocontext symbols are now in libperl so a test program needs to link with it. Adding $($PERL -MExtUtils::Embed -e ldopts) to the compiler command line does just that.
