Confirmed in #gentoo, Bug in Ubuntu 49283 also affects Gentoo. libFLAC has a set PT_GNU_STACK marking. Add the following block to the end of each src/libFLAC/ia32/*.nasm ; PT_GNU_STACK so we don't get a +X stack %ifidn __OUTPUT_FORMAT__,elf section .note.GNU-stack noalloc noexec nowrite progbits %endif
Which version are you referring to? The latest version of flac (and afair also the stable version) applies the patch 120_all_noexecstack that fixes this already.
Stable is 1.1.2-r3, which has PATCHLEVEL=1 -- and flac-patches-1.tar.bz2 *DOESN'T* contain this patch 1.1.2-r8 and 1.1.3 (both marked ~arch for all arches) use PATCHLEVEL=8 and 10 respectively -- and so *DO* have the patch. So this is fixed, but the fixed version isn't marked stable yet.
Okay now makes more sense. I still wonder why this was pointed at a bug in Ubuntu I couldn't care less (as I reported the fix upstream myself) and this was reported as bug #114984 in Gentoo already, but whatever. To the reporter, you should usually report _which_ version of a package you're reporting about, and not report boilerplates problem that are already handled somehow. Executable stacks are usually non-critical so they don't require an early stable, but I suppose that the latest 1.1.2-r8 is now good enough for stable as it's in the tree since 26th September.
