[ebuild     U ] dev-qt/qtgui-5.11.3 [5.11.2-r1] USE="gif jpeg libinput png udev xcb -accessibility -dbus -debug -egl -eglfs -evdev -gles2 -ibus -test -tslib -tuio -vnc" 

I originally suspected this to be a duplicate of bug #669994, but the solution there is not working. 

Compile fails at: 
> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -o libdl main.o    
> main.o: In function `main':
> main.cpp:(.text.startup+0x19): undefined reference to `dlopen'

> main.cpp:(.text.startup+0x2f): undefined reference to `dlerror'
> collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
> gmake: *** [Makefile:67: libdl] Error 1

Quick search reveals it to be related to a missing -ldl linker flag, but I'm unsure how to proceed.

That's just a test in src_configure(). It is resolved just below the output you quoted.
Comment 3 Gian Luca Dalla Torre 2018-12-12 07:37:12 UTC
I have the same problem.
I suspect that the problem lies in the old kernel I have (4.4).

I will try to upgrade to latest gentoo-sources and then recompile qtcore to see if everything will work.
Comment 4 Gian Luca Dalla Torre 2018-12-12 22:52:42 UTC
I confirm that, after upgrading to gentoo-sources-4.19.8 and rebuilding the kernel, qtcore and qtgui compile flawlessly.

I suspect that qtcore-5.11.3 refers to some kernel functions that are not present on old kernel versions like 4.4.4 and, during linking, they are stripped.

I do not know, however, which is the minimum version requirement for Kernel to work with this version of qt.
Comment 5 Greg Kubaryk 2018-12-13 04:27:39 UTC
/usr/lib/libQt5Core.so.5.11.3: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (GNU/Linux), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 4.11.0, stripped

Nice of upstream to make significant changes to the kernel requirement on a point release.
Comment 6 Andreas Sturmlechner gentoo-dev 2018-12-16 09:17:33 UTC
Seems this was done there:

https://codereview.qt-project.org/gitweb?p=qt/qtbase.git;a=commitdiff;h=b7887f9b4faad2227691a2af589e9d7680d6ae08

We already depend on linux-headers in dev-qt/qtgui, so we will need to raise that to >=4.11. However, I can't tell if it is still enough to make this conditional for udev/evdev only.
Comment 7 Davide Pesavento gentoo-dev 2018-12-16 19:49:11 UTC
The requirement of linux kernel >= 4.11 is introduced only when building against glibc >= 2.28, if statx() support is detected at build-time then Qt uses it unconditionally. I guess Qt devs are implicitly assuming that if you have such a recent glibc, you're also running a relatively new kernel.

However, it seems that there are fallbacks in the code in case the running kernel doesn't have statx (ENOSYS), so it's unclear to me why qtcore is adding a .note.ABI-tag ELF section requiring linux >= 4.11

For now, I think we can forcefully disable statx support at configure time in 5.11.3
Comment 8 Marek Duranik 2018-12-17 07:28:00 UTC
I have same problem with QT, but I can't switch to new kernel, because my laptop include old nvidia vga hardware. Mentioned driver of hardware supported kernel till version 4.13. Problem is, that reachable is only version 4.9.x(I use it) or 4.14.x or 4.19.x.
Could you please show me how is posible "forcefully disable statx support"?
Comment 9 Stefan Kalis 2018-12-17 11:42:54 UTC
Dumping 5.11.2 only one day after putting up 5.11.3 was a bit quick apparently. The mentioned previous version worked very well for me.

Thanks. It looks like it works. Graphical environment did start, but not completely. I will recompile all QT-packages of version 5.11.3 installed so far and I will try to compile rest of the QT packages prepared for upgrade.

Running ancient kernels with ~arch is a bit strange also.

You can update linux-headers separately of *-sources, did anyone actually try that yet?
Comment 13 Stefan Kalis 2018-12-18 19:29:04 UTC
I have linux-headers-4.19 installed. It does not cause problems but also does not solve the problem with Qt.

Qvkgen refers to Vulkan headers if I am not mistaken - this is a bit strange when Vulkan driver is disabled on my system.

Did you rebuild glibc afterwards?

I don't think linux-headers is related to this in any way. The statx() syscall wrapper is in glibc. It's the new glibc version (>= 2.28) that triggers this problem.

However in bug 672556 we have at least one bug report using glibc-2.27-r6.

Pass -no-feature-statx to configure.

I'm stuck on 4.9.x due to tons of bugs in newer versions that leave my computer unbootable. Otherwise I love ~arch

Still not fixed. Just stumbled upon this with a very old stable amd64 system where I wanted to upgrade the userland before the kernel...

What kernel version exactly?

Comment 26 Ben 2021-02-28 04:12:46 UTC
Could the comment in the qtcore ebuild for this issue be clarified that it will also induce build errors if building with old kernel?

The ewarn seems to somewhat imply that this is a runtime issue versus a build issue.  I ignored the warning as I had a new kernel ready for runtime, but continued using an old kernel for bootstrap.  Therefore I ran into this bewildering bug, which is quickly solved after research finding this is indeed a build time issue.

Thanks for considering!
