Package: libc6-dev Version: 2.3.5-12.1 Severity: important After upgrade libc6 to 2.3.5-12.1 our locat projects failed to build.
Minimal test that reproduces the problem: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/adm/libc> cat t.c #include <stdlib.h> void at() {} int f(void) { atexit(&at); return 0; } [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/adm/libc> gcc -shared -o libt.so t.c /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a(atexit.oS)(.gnu.linkonce.t.__i686.get_pc_thunk.bx+0x0): In function `__i686.get_pc_thunk.bx': : multiple definition of `__i686.get_pc_thunk.bx' /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/3.3.5/crtbeginS.o(.gnu.linkonce.t.__i686.get_pc_thunk.bx+0x0): first defined here collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Error goes away if libc is downgraded to version in testing. Error was not there before today's upgrade (so it not was there in 2.3.5-12 version). Error also goes away if binutils is upgraded from sarge version to version currently in unstable. But this upgrade in turn causes problems with usage of g++ 3.3, described at http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16625. This problem happens on Debian if binutils are post-sarge, with any version of g++-3.3 packages. So at least, dependency on recent binutils should be added. But it would be much better if compatibility with sarge binutils will be preserved in libc6-dev until a workable combination of g++-3.3 and post-sarge binutils will be found. Unfortunately, we do have to use g++-3.3 ABI here, and I'm sure we are not alone with that. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers proposed-updates APT policy: (640, 'proposed-updates'), (640, 'stable'), (620, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (620, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable'), (550, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15 Locale: LANG=ru_RU.KOI8-R, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.KOI8-R (charmap=KOI8-R) Versions of packages libc6-dev depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii linux-kernel-headers 2.5.999-test7-bk-17 Linux Kernel Headers for developme Versions of packages libc6-dev recommends: ii gcc [c-compiler] 4:3.3.5-3 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-2.95 [c-compiler] 1:2.95.4-22 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-3.3 [c-compiler] 1:3.3.5-13 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-3.4 [c-compiler] 3.4.3-13 The GNU C compiler -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
