I tried wip/dateutils and it failed to build for me because gperf
wasn't found.
buildlinking devel/gperf fixed this.
I also checked the configure output.
The package uses lex and yacc and configure searches for flex and bison
so I think these should be added to USE_TOOLS.
Configure also test for dlopen and such. But when I grep for dlopen
in the source it doesn't find anything. Just thinking if
mk/dlopen.buildlink3.mk should be included but I am not sure.
Also this version of dateutils doesn't seem to come with a .pc file.
I can't find one. And since the pc file has disappeared and no libs are
installed maybe thats how the creator wants it, only command line
utils and no libs.
