Package: libtool Version: 1.5.6-6 Severity: important
Building shared libraries on Debian/Alpha does not work when the source is on AFS, but instead causes a linking error: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/alpha-linux/3.3.5/../../../crt1.o(.text+0x10):../sysdeps /alpha/elf/start.S:37: undefined reference to `main' This happens more than 9 times out of 10, but most importantly, it does not always occur and I could not make it happen on any x86 arch (x86_64 was not tested). I made this important because it only seems to affect alpha although since it breaks unrelated software (builds), it could even be critical (right?). An example failing build is Heimdal: at the very beginning of the build process: /usr/bin/make -C build-tree/heimdal-0.7.1 [entering a few directories] gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -I../include -I../lib/roken -I../lib/roken -DHOST=\"i686-pc-linux-gnu\" -I/usr/include/et -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wbad-function-cast -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -g -O2 -c bits.c /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link gcc -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wbad-function-cast -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -g -O2 -o bits bits.o -lresolv -pthread mkdir .libs gcc -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wbad-function-cast -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -g -O2 -o bits bits.o -lresolv -pthread /usr/lib/gcc-lib/alpha-linux/3.3.5/../../../crt1.o(.text+0x10): ../sysdeps/alpha/elf/start.S:37: undefined reference to `main' The build, naturally, fails here.
