NetSurf @3.11: Undefined symbols: _getline

[barracuda156]

: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.

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.

Any update on this, Ryan?

Unfortunately it doesn't look like the developers have responded to the ticket I filed.

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