Description Sergio Bevilacqua 2010-03-29 16:01:22 UTC
With some LDFLAGS enabled evolution compiles fine but doesn't work: the main window appears empty and isn't possibile to do anything other close the program.
This is caused by some LDFLAGS values. I suppose this is caused by one or more from "--enable-new-dtags, --as-needed, --hash-style=gnu"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. set LDFLAGS="-Wl,-z,now,-O1,--enable-new-dtags,--as-needed,--hash-style=gnu" in make.conf
2. emerge evolution
3. launch evolution

Actual Results:  
LDFLAGS="" emerge -1 evolution solves the problem


I think it can be useful to filter the LDFLAGS variable as in other ebuilds, for instance openoffice

Could you please try to find out which option causes the problem?
Comment 2 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2010-03-29 16:23:29 UTC
I think it's "-z"
