Created attachment 273761 [details] Build log Hello there! You're getting this bug because the package in Summary failed to build in my tinderbox using the gold link editor from binutils. Before closing the bug as INVALID let me explain why this is still important! The gold link editor does not support underlinking of shared objects, which is something I have described in my blog post: http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2010/11/26/it-s-not-all-gold-that-shines-why-underlinking-is-a-bad-thing Even the basic link editor (ld.bfd) has an option to support this but it is a heck to enable and get passed, so linking with gold is simply quicker. Fixing underlinking provides optimized --as-needed builds (because the "softer" version no longer need to recover libraries that are underlinked), so it is a Good Thing To Do. Thank you very much for the attention!
Created attachment 299241 [details, diff] quark-3.21-build.patch Patch to fix underlinking, make debug behave better, and integrate sed from ebuild.
Created attachment 299247 [details, diff] quark-3.21.ebuild.patch - Correct ordering of variables - Add missing deps - Refix bug #226777 which got lost in the last commit
Created attachment 313399 [details] build log 2 This is probably going to hit more users because AFAIK GCC (4.6.2 or so) doesn't allow indirect linking now. Attaching another build log which probably shows the issue in a more clear way as a form of "me too."
there is a version bump available, homepage is wrong too I'll take care of that.
