 FS#43367  - [binutils] -flto doesn't work
User who did this - Doug Newgard (Scimmia)

Reason for denial:
Extremely unlikely that it's the same issue

pretty sure it's the same thing because the symlink is broken and adjusting it fixes the issue
This task depends upon

  • Field changed: Summary (flto broken again → [binutils] flto broken again)
  • Field changed: Status (Unconfirmed → Assigned)
  • Task assigned to Bartłomiej Piotrowski (Barthalion)
pkgver=7.2.1+20171224

This breaks badly when the fix for the previous bug uses $pkgver to (try to) link to /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.2.1+20171224/ rather than /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.2.1/

"pretty sure it's the same thing because the symlink is broken and adjusting it fixes the issue"

And if you would have put that in the reopen request instead of just "It's broken again", things might have gone differently. Information is key.

I blame Allan who didn't use $_libdir variable there…
