[Pkg-ime-devel] Bug#609776: Bug #609776: fcitx: FTBFS on kfreebsd-*: configure: error: You need to install md5sum

thanks

I'm now making a patch try to fix it on kfreebsd-* and hurd-*, wish it
works.

The FTBFS is firstly caused md5sum program detection (currently visible
problem), and secondly there would be a linker flag problem (on buildd
it still does not touch this step):

1. Upstream hard coded to use gmd5sum on *freebsd*, which make kfreebsd
fall in this category, but in Debian kfreebsd gmd5sum is named md5sum.
They didn't check for other platforms other than freebsd and linux, so
hurd cannot work. I'm sure my patch can fix this point.

2. Upstream set the HOST_LIBS flag of *freebsd* to "-lexecinfo
-pthread". I'm not so sure about what to do on kfreebsd-* and hurd, in
my patch I set them to the same as Linux, "-ldl -lpthread". 


I will look at the build build in next days, and try to verify the patch
by installing a virtual machine if needed.
