NetSurf @3.11: Undefined symbols: _getline

Reported by: barracuda156 Owned by: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.8.1
Keywords: leopard, snowleopard, tiger Cc:
Port: NetSurf

Description

:info:build Undefined symbols:
:info:build   "_getline", referenced from:
:info:build       _fatmessages_read in cctMsPGv.o
:info:build ld: symbol(s) not found

Simple addition of PG to the portfile did not help, however. Perhaps something prevents flags from being passed correctly.

Okay, I dunno how to force the build system to acknowledge linking to legacy-support. Passing -Wl,-lMacportsLegacySupport to cflags does not help either.

Summary: NetSurf needs legacysupport for _getlineNetSurf #3.11: Undefined symbols: _getline

NetSurf is a browser intended to be portable to a wide range of systems so this strikes me as a problem upstream might want to know about so they can solve it. Reported here: https://bugs.netsurf-browser.org/mantis/view.php?id=2863

Thank you!

I thought it could work for me for GitHub and GitLab, since I am having troubles with InterWebPPC and TenFourFox specifically for these sites, and it is very inconvenient to either switch to a laptop every time I just need to check something in an online repo or fetch the thing to use locally.

Can if be fixed on our end via LegacySupport or a direct patch?
