i'm attempting to build a MaxMind GeopIP2 DB reader perl module
MaxMind::DB::Reader::XS
( https://metacpan.org/pod/MaxMind::DB::Reader::XS
)
on Fedora 32.
the build fails on F32 with Errors:
"/usr/bin/ld: unrecognized option '-Wl,-z,relro'"
&
"Unsupported compile language "C"" ?
I've filed a bug at the module upstream
uninstallable on Fedora32, errors: "/usr/bin/ld: unrecognized option
'-Wl,-z,relro'" & "Unsupported compile language "C"" ?
https://github.com/maxmind/MaxMind-DB-Reader-XS/issues/32
the build fails only with Fedora's distro perl, which _includes_ the ldflags
perl -V | grep -i " ldflags"
ldflags ='-Wl,-z,relro -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-z,now
-specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld -fstack-protector-strong
-L/usr/local/lib'
but is _successful_ on opensuse, where distro perl's ldflags do NOT include
'-Wl,-z,relro',
perl -V | grep -i " ldflags"
ldflags =' -L/usr/local/lib64 -fstack-protector-strong'
Is this^ a problem with Fedora's perl build flags "incorrectly" _including_
relro? I've found/followed some of the perl hardening threads @ Fedora; IIUC,
it's intentional ...
Or likely an issue with the module not correctly dealing with it?
