Well, I already tried in my P.S. but let me try again: I'm not
suggesting that devs should have more optimized binaries
- it matters b/c of this in misc-functions.sh:
if [[ ${LDFLAGS} == *--hash-style=gnu* ]] [[ ${PN} != *-bin ]] ;
then;
do some magic here to detect ignored LDFLAGS
fi
Good candidate to test is net-fs/mount-cifs (tiny, fast)
You *only* get the following QA notice w/ LDFLAGS=-Wl,--hash-style=gnu
set:
* QA Notice: Files built without respecting LDFLAGS have been detected
* Please include the following list of files in your report:
* /usr/bin/mount.cifs
* /usr/bin/umount.cifs
If you have another way to detect ignored LDFLAGS in portage, then you
don't need to add anything to devs profiles. :)
Hope that my proposal is more clear now.
Cheers,
DN

forcing gnu-only hashes breaks some systems, and is a relatively newish

Not only here but also in your comments in b.g.o. In the very first post, I wrote in the subject: Add LDFLAGS=-Wl,--hash-style=gnu to *developer* *profile's* make.defaults - yet it seems that people just don't read the subjects of threads at all, otherwise this conversation could not arise. I can't think of more prominent place to emphasize the main point of the suggestion, well... it didn't work out it seems, so - apparently wrong assumption on my side. For the record, no, I didn't want to break anyone's system - definitely not more than enabling things like I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING=yes or LD_AS_NEEDED=1 already does in that particular profile. The only thing this flag ever broke on Gentoo was some weird rare MIPS stuff (Bug 232139 and Bug 233233). Sorry and forget about this, clearly I suck at explaining things. Have a nice day.

[gentoo-dev] Add LDFLAGS=-Wl,--hash-style=gnu to developer profile's make.defaults
The amount of bugs concerning ebuilds that ignore LDFLAGS suggests that this would be a good idea, b/c it seems a many maintainers are completely unaware that their ebuilds do not respect LDFLAGS - so I guess this needs more visibility. P.S. If you wonder why this flag then check /usr/lib/portage/bin/misc-functions.sh ;) Cheers, DN. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
