Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-02-12 09:30:56 UTC
These files have a .hash section even when my LDFLAGS tell the linker not to generate it:

sys-power/apcupsd-3.14.2 (/usr/bin/gapcmon)
Comment 1 Michael Imhof (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-05-08 19:07:34 UTC
Upstream? Or can it be fixed in the ebuild?
Comment 2 Kevin Pyle 2009-01-03 21:34:12 UTC
That depends on the build system.  Usually, a patch to the build system is required, as in this case.  Looking at src/gapcmon/Makefile.in, the link rule for gapcmon is:

gapcmon: $(gapcmon_OBJS)
    $(LD) -o $@ $(gapcmon_OBJS) @GAPCMON_LIBS@ -lX11 -lXext $(X_LIBS) $(X_EXTRA_LIBS)

The fix should be to add $(LDFLAGS) right after $(LD).  Do not be misled by the use of $(LD) as the variable name.  Based on the configure script, $(LD) is usually set to gcc.  It might be different on a non-Linux system.

Taking over. Michael you let this package rot so much, since I need it, I'm going to take it over and take care.

Please don't say I didn't give you enough notice, last year I already asked you this much and now I'm simply tired.

Upstream's new buildsystem is fun. Why people reinvent the wheel? :(
Comment 5 Kevin Pyle 2010-01-14 23:46:59 UTC
The only version of sys-power/apcupsd I see in the tree right now is 3.14.7, and its Makefile appears to honor LDFLAGS for gapcmon now.

Looks like fixed to me... 
Comment 7 Kacper Kowalik (Xarthisius) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-07-28 12:16:57 UTC
Both version in tree (3.14.7 3.14.8) respect LDFLAGS. Closing...
