LDFLAGS --as-needed one.
The whole system except dev-python/gst-python works :)

CFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe" 
CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
#LDFLAGS="-Wl, -O1 -Wl, --as-needed -Wl,-z,now"  <-- quodlibet broke here -
because of gst-python
LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--enable-new-dtags -Wl,--sort-common -s -Wl,--as-needed
-Wl,-z,now" <-- and broke here too

No pastebins, please. Post/attach all relevant info, reopen then.

after chatting with aballier on #gentoo-amd64 we pin-point at "-z, now"
it wasn't "--as-needed"

So don't use such flags.

Right now that's what I'm doing.
LDFLAGS="dancy stuff except <-z, now>" in
/etc/portage/env/dev-python/gst-python

Thanks anyway.

Created an attachment (id=129136) [details]
gst-dlopen-now.c

this should exhibit the same problem on any system

(From update of attachment 129136 [details])
actually, i lied ... ignore this

ugh, looking through gst's python code, it looks like the way they've written
their module loading code requires everything be delayed

you should get upstream to have configure test and append -Wl,-z,nonow to
LDFLAGS when possible

-z nonow doesnt seem to properly invert -z now ... -z lazy should work fine

You shouldn't be using such flags.. seriously. Anyway,

+  01 Sep 2007; Samuli Suominen <drac@gentoo.org> gst-python-0.10.8.ebuild:
+  Filter some ricing LDFLAGS wrt #168326.

me thinks you dont understand what -z,now actually does ... all hardened
systems utilize it ... in fact, anyone who wants to be a ricer wouldnt actually
utilize these flags as they cause a startup performance problem as a trade off
at runtime

filtering does not actually solve the problem, you still need to do what i
suggested: append -Wl,-z,lazy and get upstream to do the same in the configure
script so we dont need to workaround with flag appending

Created an attachment (id=129928) [details]
gst-python-0.10.8-lazy.patch

Patch checking if -Wl,-z,lazy is accepted by ld, if yes, then use it.

vapier, looks better? ;)

If someone can be more verbose, for upstream, that'd be nice. URL attached.

For reference, gst-python built with -z,now:

Upstream is now well aware of the problem and has test it himself.

For now, he requested me to modify them inside ebuild 'till the bug in URL is
solved.

20:30 < bilboed> drac, modify the LDFLAGS in the ebuild

+  03 Sep 2007; Samuli Suominen <drac@gentoo.org> gst-python-0.10.8.ebuild:
+  Instead of filtering -z,now, append -z,lazy wrt #166221.

weird, i only got about half the comments posted here via e-mail ...

the configure patch posted is fugly (but pretty much every ld check ive seen in
a configure script was fugly :D), so if it works i'd roll with it

While version bumping, I've applied it in 0.10.9 as upstream is not very
responsive wrt this issue. WFM.
