Fedora has recently moved to using glibc 2.34. That caused Free Pascal Compiler to stop building with the following output:
/usr/bin/ld: /builddir/build/BUILD/fpcbuild-3.2.2/fpcsrc/rtl/units/powerpc64-linux/si_c.o:(.data.n_TC_$SI_C_$$_START_ADDRESSES+0x10): undefined reference to `__libc_csu_init' /usr/bin/ld: /builddir/build/BUILD/fpcbuild-3.2.2/fpcsrc/rtl/units/powerpc64-linux/si_c.o:(.data.n_TC_$SI_C_$$_START_ADDRESSES+0x18): undefined reference to `__libc_csu_fini' Error: Error while linking One of the guys responsible for glibc in Fedora gave this explanation: > It's related to startup code hardening in glibc. In general, it's not forward-compatible to call internal glibc functions this way. > __libc_csu_init and __libc_csu_fini where never part of any header file. > It's not clear to me why fpc needs to replace the startup code. They could supply a C main function and call Pascall code from that. Or compile the main program in such a way that it has a compatible interface with the C main program. I'm not the maintainer of fpc package in Fedora, but hopefully the real maintainer will add themselves in this discussion. Do you have any hint on how we can make fpc build again?
