Public bug reported: The qemu build reaches (and always did) a step where it tries to link some img files. That is done via the command: $ ld -m elf_i386 -T /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/pc-bios/optionrom//flat.lds -no-pie -s -o multiboot.img multiboot.o
Recently that still works in Debian [1] but no more in Ubuntu [2]. I think that the new binutils broke me. In hirsute proposed those are at 2.35.50.20201210-0ubuntu1 The issue is easily isolated, and by copying the two files around I found the following: Hirsute: 2.35.50.20201210-0ubuntu1 - bad Hirsute: 2.35.50.20201207-0ubuntu1 - bad Sid: 2.35.1-4 - good Groovy: 2.35.1-1ubuntu1 - good Focal: 2.34-6ubuntu1 - good I'll attach these two files to the bug, just thro them into a directory and run the command: $ ld -m elf_i386 -T ./flat.lds -no-pie -s -o linuxboot.img linuxboot.o If that is an intentional change please guide how this is now supposed to work.
