sys-boot/refind-0.10.8/temp/build.log

So I have a testing system with 
SYMLINK_LIB=no
LIBDIR_x86=lib


cleanly installed from fresh snapshot and migrated as discussed here:
https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/b4a3e2ea1a6dec32b550812c9a25b1dc


Refind fails to build with: 
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ld: cannot open linker script file /usr/lib/elf_x86_64_efi.lds: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [Makefile:48: refind_x64.so] Error 1

[Comment 2 Martin Väth 2017-12-30 05:01:25 UTC]

The problem here is that the location

/usr/lib/elf_x86_64_efi.lds

is wrong: The make system should look for this file not in /usr/lib/ but in
/usr/$(get_libdir)/

Glancing over the makefile, it seems that using
EFICRT0=/usr/$(get_libdir)
as an additional make parameter (or patching the default in the makefile correspondingly) should do the trick.

SYMLINK_LIB=no patch

Looks like GNUEFILIB, EFILIB, EFICRT0 all need the $(get_libdir) treatment. Works on my 17.1 profile, can't vouch for any other configs.

set library paths to build on 64-bit systems

Here is another version of the patch. It seems to fit better with the style of the current ebuild - setting the variables where all the rest are getting set.

I've been using this patch for the past three versions.

Thanks, Georgi, for the patch - it did the trick nicely.

Sorry, looks like I forked the ebuild from an earlier version.

Fixed, and thanks.
