Readline incompatibility with lsh

Reported by: greeneg (Gary Greene) Owned by: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.3.3
Keywords: haspatch Cc: kurthindenburg (Kurt Hindenburg)
Port: lsh

Description

While attempting to build lsh, I've found a few errors that block it from building.

First, clang is not compatible with the build unless the -std=gnu89 flag is passed to the compiler since it uses inline externs in a way that is incompatible with C99. After patching the Portfile to use the extra flag for clang, I get errors pointing to readline 6.3 being incompatible with it due to using a function that is no longer present in readline.

At this point, I checked upstream, found that there is a newer release available from the FSF's site, but it also has the same incompatibility with readline 6.3.

Build log for the current version of the port in the repository is attached.

Added patched version of the port file to add the extra flags for testing by others. Will upload another version of it for the new release for testing tomorrow.

You should attach a unified diff of your changes instead of a complete new Portfile.
