I assume this would be beneficial also there.
I agree, we should not be be multiplying hacks. There is already code adding -Wl,--build-id=none to TARGET_LDFLAGS. It's a macro grub_PROG_LD_BUILD_ID_NONE in aclocal.m4. What's wrong with it? Does it fail to add -Wl,--build-id=none on PowerPC or is TARGET_LDFLAGS not used to link kernel.elf? What are the symptoms caused by not using -Wl,--build-id=none? -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
