Bug 254462 – app-emulation/libvirt-0.5.1: fails with --as-needed

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) 2009-01-10 20:01:02 UTC]

I'm reporting this bug because the package in summary fails to build when forcing --as-needed on through spec files (check out http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2008/11/14/problems-and-mitigation-strategies-for-as-needed for details).

Please note that this bug _might_ apply to -Wl,--as-needed in LDFLAGS as well; in both cases it should be fixed. Also, if this is due to the package in question not respecting user-defined LDFLAGS, you should get to fix that too.

Check the attached build log.

Thanks,
Diego

Works fine for me too without ",--as-needed -Wl" LDFLAG

I'm getting the same issue without forced --as-needed. Just by having:

LDFLAGS="-Wl,--as-needed"

Fixed with the 0.6.x series.
