Details

Description:
The clangbackend binary stopped working in the Qt Creator 4.11.2-1 update from testing.

When I try to run it I get:
Inconsistency detected by ld.so: rtld.c: 1492: dl_main: Assertion `GL(dl_rtld_map).l_libname' failed!

Steps to Reproduce:
I did a -Syu on April 1st which updated the qtcreator package to 4.11.2-1, clangbackend was then broken both when launched by qt creator and when trying to run it on its own.

I tried to rebuild the qtcreator package, but it did not help.

Downgrading to qtcreator 4.11.1-1 fixes the issue.
This task depends upon

Qt Creator 4.11 (as well as 4.12) were never tested with anything but clang 8 and needs patches on top of normal clang. I think those extra patches are mostly relevant for windows, so you might get by without them;-)

I would recommend to disable clang in the package for the time being.

Clang 10 support _might_ happen in the 4.13 release and may or may not need extra patches.

@hunger as the OP said, 4.11.1 worked fine with the exact same clang version, so it's not a problem with clang itself.

4.11.1 built against current packages also shows the issue, so it's also not caused by a change in qtcreator.

So this must be caused by some library update between 6/2 and 31/3. Currently trying to identify which one it is, help is appreciated.

I never said this does not link:-) But the clang-based functionality in creator is known to work reliably with a patched clang 8 *only*. Everything else is unsupported.

I hope that we will finally catch up with clang again in Creator 4.13!

OK turns out it's GCC - with gcc 9.2.0 it works, with gcc 9.2.1+20200130 it's broken
