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?
I think it's "-z" *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 141448 ***
