Bug 310087 – app-backup/bacula-3.0.3 fails with --as-needed

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Thomas Beierlein 2010-03-18 13:40:42 UTC]

Package seems to compile and install without errors but misses some binaries. A check of the build log shows that some binaries could not be linked because of missing symbols of secondary libs. See attached build.log.

What seems weird is that the build process does not fail.

Patch to work with --as-needed

The attached patch fixes the problem on stable amd64 and x86. Needs to be positioned in files/3.0.3 and applied with epatch in src_prepare().

updated fix for --as-needed

Overlooked one problem in the last patch. It worked only if libbac.so was already installed.

New patch looks for libbac.so in its build directory, so it is also available during first install.

Fixed in 5.0.1-r2.
Can you please report that bug upstream?

Ok, I will do it in next days.
