Same here. It wouldn't build for me with LD=ld.bfd in /etc/portage/env though, I had to set binutils-config --linker ld.bfd prior to emerge.

I'd forgotten about this bug so thought I'd re-run a build. As I no longer had rtaudio on my system it was a new compile with the following in the various portage environment files. /etc/portage/package.env: media-libs/rtaudio ld.bfd.env /etc/portage/env/ld.bfd.env: LD="ld.bfd" CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -fuse-ld=bfd" CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -fuse-ld=bfd" LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -fuse-ld=bfd" It ran OK to completion for me (as also for rtaudio-5.0.0). Don't know if this helps.

if i get it right, the issue was in misconfiguration of the build process, so closing this bug. if i got it wrong, please re-open.

ok. what's the fix then?

(In reply to Miroslav Šulc from comment #6) > ok. what's the fix then? I don't know. The rtaudio project, however, is still active (there appears to be a version 5.1.0) and it might be appropriate for the gentoo maintainer to contact the developer for their comments (home page https://www.music.mcgill.ca/~gary/rtaudio/index.html). There are a number of ebuilds in portage which have to address the same issue and these may offer some guidance. As I indicated in comment#2, I no longer have rtaudio on my system.
thanks. i will see what i can do about it when i find some time for that. i am not familiar with ld.gold at all so will to get some information first, but you are right that the other already resolved bugs should give some guidance.
