>Description:
devel/nss is not fine. patches tries to fix the problem, that does not.
I was able to follow the build just dropping the -lplc4 and -lnspr4 on
*/config.mk but this is a very ugly solution, because it cannot find the
external syms.
BTW i can't understand why chat/gaim depends on nss, ok, it's BSD like
instead of using gnutls. But I think that this must be defined in options
or something similar, but force users to use nss, when they can use gnutls
it's stupid. Look at this output:
pancake@pl2:/usr/pkgsrc$ find .| grep nss| grep buildlink| wc -l
2
pancake@pl2:/usr/pkgsrc$
Few time ago, I sent another PR about gaim integrating the options framework.
