[136/1173] /usr/bin/ld.mold -z noexecstack -r -b binary gtk/gtk.gresource -o gtk/gtkresources_blob.o
FAILED: gtk/gtkresources_blob.o 
/usr/bin/ld.mold -z noexecstack -r -b binary gtk/gtk.gresource -o gtk/gtkresources_blob.o
mold: fatal: mold does not support `-b binary`. If you want to convert a binary file into an object file, use `objcopy -I binary -O default <input-file> <output-file.o>` instead.

Doesn't happen without LD=ld.mold in make.conf does this mean that mold doesn't get used with only -fuse-ld=mold?

This looks like a direct linker invocation so I guess only the LD environment variable matters. -fuse-ld is a compiler driver flag which tells the compiler (gcc/clang) to use a specific linker.

P.S. I don't see -fuse-ld=mold in your gtk-specific LDFLAGS.

So it's still a bug on GTK side right? Mold gives a helpful message that you should use objcopy -I binary -O default <input-file> <output-file.o> instead. I can open a bug upstream if need be

> P.S. I don't see -fuse-ld=mold in your gtk-specific LDFLAGS.

Yea I was rebuilding GTK with updated gcc, when I first built it I didn't have mold installed

We can also report to upstream mold to see if Rui has any opinion on this one.
Comment 6 zyxhere 2025-03-02 13:04:42 UTC
For some reason gtk is now building with LD="ld.mold" and LD=ld.mold in make.conf

Never mind I had GTK in a non-mold package.env file
Comment 8 zyxhere 2025-03-08 11:11:17 UTC
The mold wiki doesn't specify that you need LD="ld.mold" in make.conf to use it.
Comment 9 zyxhere 2025-03-22 16:30:20 UTC
Having second thoughts on this I have to use a nomold package.env for gtk because I want to keep LD="ld.mold" in make.conf
