Created attachment 88242 [details, diff] Patch for klibc-1.2.1-r1.ebuild which fixes LDFLAGS-related breakage ...and here's a proposed patch to the ebuild which adds LDFLAGS="$(raw-ldflags)" to the build and install command lines (which fixes the problem), although I have no idea whether this is the Right Thing to do. Best, Ron
Is this only on ppc ? Because it works fine with LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" on amd64 and x86.
I can't say for sure, Martin, as I no longer have the PPC machine to test. Can anyone else confirm whether this still happens on PPC?
This seems fixed w/ klibc-1.5, I just compiled it on a ppc32 box, and it didn't complain about any LDFLAGS (which I had defined via environment).
