>Description:

The databases/rrdtool package from -current packages of a couple of days
ago fails to compile on NetBSD 1.5.2/amiga, this is the fault.

================================

================================

This compiles fine on 1.5.3_ALPHA/i386 and -current/i386

I am unsure wether this is specific if /maiga, 1.5.2/amiga or 1.5.2/* 
as all my other machines are -current, with the execption on a single
1.5.3_ALPHA/i386 box.


This appears to be a problem with the fact that the autoconf of this
package decided that it should set $LD as 'ld' at this point. On 1.5.3
and later it sets this to 'cc'.

This seems to be due to the ld on 1.5.2/amiga doesn't respond to 'ld -v' 

1.5.2/amiga
================================
tim@amy:~$ ident `which ld`
/usr/bin/ld:
     $NetBSD: crt0.c,v 1.21 1999/01/22 11:29:16 mycroft Exp $
     $NetBSD: ld.c,v 1.70.2.3 2000/12/26 01:19:35 jhawk Exp $
tim@amy:~$ ld -v
ld: invalid command option `-v'
================================

-current/i386
================================
tim@katrina:~$ ident `which ld`
/usr/bin/ld:
     $NetBSD: crt0.c,v 1.11 2000/06/14 22:52:49 cgd Exp $
tim@katrina:~$ ld -v
GNU ld version 2.11.2 (with BFD 2.11.2)
================================

Now I suspect that things would be OK except for the fact that one of
the NetBSD patches (patch-ak) patches
<work>/rrdtool-1.0.33/perl-shared/Makefile.PL

in the following manner
================================
-    'dynamic_lib'  => {'OTHERLDFLAGS' => "$librrd -lm"},
+    'dynamic_lib'  => {'OTHERLDFLAGS' => '-Wl,-R${PREFIX}/lib -L${PREFIX}/lib -Wl,-R${X11BASE}/lib -L${X11BASE}/lib '."$librrd -lcgi -lm -lgd -lpng -lz -ljpeg -lttf -lXpm -lX11 -lintl"},
================================

As a result the arguments passed to ld are those intended for cc, and ld
barfs =(

>How-To-Repeat:

Attempt to install the databases/rrdtool package on 1.5.2/amiga,
possibly on 1.5.2/*

>Fix:

I'm not sure how to fix this cleanly, the package building process has
evolved considerably recently and does lots of 'funky stuff' these days
=o)

To solve my personal problem I'm in the process of upgrading this box to
1.5.3_ALPHA
