CURE: add to the ebuild..
src_prepare() {
       sed -i -e 's/-Wl,-warn-once//g' configure*
}

For the same reason the referenced bug for gputils (see 'see also' field) fails.

Reproducible: Always

I'm seeing this too, when I'm using gold instead of ld.bfd.

gpsim-0.26.1.ebuild.patch

So dropping the flag gets past this error, but there are other issues when linking with ld.gold that are frankly going to take too long for me to sort out.

Just forcing ld.bfd in the ebuild however doesn't suffice either, as -Wl,-warn-once is still rejected by CCLD when ld.gold is the system linker.

However, doing both allows the build to finish fine.  Patch to gpsim-0.26.1.ebuild is attached.

the "${S}" is redundant

it's not clear why you need to pass LD or LDFLAGS explicitly.  configure should already do the right thing wrt both.

Hello,

same problem with dev-embedded/gputils-1.5.0

[Comment 5 Xavier Miller (RETIRED) 2017-08-11 11:33:13 UTC]

patching configure file of gputils works for me

Any news on this? It's still failing.

[Comment 7 Matt Turner 2022-06-01 22:42:02 UTC]

I can't reproduce the failure now, with binutils-2.37.
