Hi, as you can read below there is a patch available that enables building saint on Ubuntu. Please drop me a note whether I should apply this quite simple patch for the Makefile or whether you intend to create a new upstream version anyway in the near future that might incorporate this patch.
BTW, we created another patch in the Debian packaging to enable propagation of hardening options to the compiler. It is available here: http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-med/trunk/packages/saint/trunk/debian/patches/fix-makefile.patch?view=markup Kind regards Andreas. ----- Forwarded message from Julian Taylor <[email protected]> ----- Date: Thu, 30 May 2013 10:36:41 +0200 From: Julian Taylor <[email protected]> To: Debian Bug Tracking System <[email protected]> Subject: Bug#710364: saint: fails to build with ld --as-needed X-Debian-PR-Message: report 710364 X-Debian-PR-Package: saint X-Debian-PR-Keywords: patch X-Debian-PR-Source: saint Package: saint Version: 2.3.4+dfsg-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch saint fails to build with ld --as-needed this flag requires libraries to be placed after objects needing their symbols. this causes build failures in ubuntu: gcc -lm -lgsl -lgslcblas -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-z,relro /tmp/buildd/saint-2.3.4+dfsg/build/*.o -o /tmp/buildd/saint-2.3.4+dfsg/bin/saint-reformat /tmp/buildd/saint-2.3.4+dfsg/build/initdata.o: In function `reformat_data': /tmp/buildd/saint-2.3.4+dfsg/src/SAINTreformat/initdata.c:305: undefined reference to `gsl_sort attached patch fixes the issue.
