** Description changed:
Ubuntu 16.10 with gcc version 6.2.0 20161005 (Ubuntu 6.2.0-5ubuntu12)
* Install gcc: sudo apt install build-essential
* Build any program with gcc.
Minimal example: printf "int main() { return 1; }" | gcc -x c -
* Read the output file header: readelf -h a.out
Expected result: the ELF header Type shows: EXEC
Actual result: the ELF header Type shows: DYN
The side effect is that we cannot run any program built with gcc 6 from
Nautilus. Nautilus opens an error message saying it does not know how to
handle a shared library.
+
+ Most programs in /bin and /usr/bin cannot be started from Nautilus by
+ double-clicking.
Everything was fine with the gcc release in Ubuntu 16.04
