Comment (by stephen):
leif: to be honest, I don't know the answer to your questions.
First, I don't know what a linker script is.
Secondly, as to what is broken - in the FreeBSD port of sage, I have a
wrapper script for gcc that looks something like this:
{{{
#!/bin/sh
# This is a wrapper to redirect compiler invokations to the port of gcc
that
# contains fortran. LDFLAGS needs to be added so that the linker knows
where
# to find the dynamic libraries.
# If the compiler is invoked with the argument "-v", adding LDFLAGS to the
# arguments results in an error which stops some packages being built.
if [ "x$*" = "x-v" ]; then
exec %%CC%% "$@"
else
exec %%CC%% %%LDFLAGS%% -Wl,--copy-dt-needed-entries "$@"
fi
}}}
The {{{%%CC%%}}} and {{{%%LDFLAGS%%%}}} are replaced by a {{{sed}}} script
to create three scripts called {{{gcc}}}, {{{g++}}} and {{{gfortran}}},
which are placed in {{{${SAGE_ROOT}/local/bin}}}.
As I said, I don't know what a linker script is - is it something like my
bin scripts?
