Bug 533530 – sys-fs/udev-218 - ?

• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Dennis Nezic 2014-12-25 18:06:45 UTC]

sys-fs/udev-218 fails to build near the end of the compilation process.

x86_64 arch. gcc version 4.7.2. only "kmod" USE flag is enabled. udev-217 compiles fine.

Here's are the last lines from the compile:

libtool: link: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -shared  -fPIC -DPIC  src/libudev/.libs/libudev_la-libudev.o src/libudev/.libs/libudev_la-libudev-list.o src/libudev/.libs/libudev_la-libudev-util.o src/libudev/.libs/libudev_la-libudev-device.o src/libudev/.libs/libudev_la-libudev-enumerate.o src/libudev/.libs/libudev_la-libudev-monitor.o src/libudev/.libs/libudev_la-libudev-queue.o src/libudev/.libs/libudev_la-libudev-hwdb.o  -Wl,--whole-archive ./.libs/libsystemd-internal.a ./.libs/libsystemd-shared.a -Wl,--no-whole-archive  -Wl,--as-needed -ldw -lrt -ldl  -march=k8 -mtune=k8 -O2 -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,-z -Wl,relro -Wl,-z -Wl,now -Wl,--version-script=/var/tmp/portage/sys-fs/udev-218/work/systemd-218/src/libudev/libudev.sym -Wl,-O1   -pthread -Wl,-soname -Wl,libudev.so.1 -o .libs/libudev.so.1.6.2

Upgrading my binutils from 2.20 to 2.24 solved the problem. It's not an uncommon problem either:

"Some really old ld versions would end up dropping these sections a bit too eagerly:

Apparently "it does not happen with binutils-2.23.2 and binutils-2.24". This should probably become a DEPEND in the ebuild?
