Description Prakash Punnoor 2005-02-15 01:58:57 UTC
Well, subject says it all. As glibc links with -r this won't work (and actually errors out) if --relax is in LDFLAGS, so please filter.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

well, i guess there ought nothing to be filtered, if you play with fire you get burned, how about relaxing your whatever flags, instead of wasting the devs', and other gentoo users' time??
Comment 2 Prakash Punnoor 2005-02-15 06:03:07 UTC
Nobody asked for your rant. I know what I am doing, so I am not complaining. I just found a flag which breaks and report it. So when the devs filter it out, they will actually save time when ricers put in all kind of flags and normally complain that it breaks and don't know how to fix it themselves.

you screw with LDFLAGS then you pick up the pieces
Comment 4 Prakash Punnoor 2005-02-15 07:22:21 UTC
Is this the official gentoo view of things? Well, I don't mind not reporting such things in future - saves my time. ;-)
Comment 5 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2005-02-15 08:47:02 UTC
until i hammer out the LDFLAGS draft and send it off to gentoo-dev, yes ...

hence the marked as LATER rather than INVALID ... for packages like
glibc/gcc/binutils, i'll probably drop in a strip-ldflags anyways so
we dont have to worry about every junk optimization someone feels like
exploiting
