Control: reassign -1 binutils Control: found -1 2.22-5 Control: found -1 2.23.52.20130722-1 Control: severity -1 normal Control: tags -1 patch
The bug has always been present in binutils (the binary package), but its effect was visible particularly when binutils-gold was installed. Now binutils-gold is no longer built. The problem still exists, e.g. when providing -fuse-ld=gold, but no longer due to an effect of some package being installed. Thus I'm downgrading the severity to normal; the ld.bfd(1) man page documents LD_RUN_PATH, but not the ld.gold(1) one, so that it could be seen as a wishlist, but if /usr/bin/ld can point to ld.gold, this will break some user-side builds (with no good workaround as -fuse-ld=bfd is not portable). I could reproduce the problem when configuring MPFR on my machine with: ./configure --with-gmp=/usr/local/gmp-debug CFLAGS='-fuse-ld=gold' (/usr/local/gmp-debug being a version different from the /usr one). I got: checking if gmp.h version and libgmp version are the same...
