Package: libc6-prof
Version: 2.19-10
Severity: grave

The library from libc6-prof package is unusable.

I'm compiling the simple example program:

int main(void)
{
        return sleep(3);
}

If I follow directly the suggestion from the README.Debian, I get the
following error:

$ gcc -g -pg test.c  -static-libgcc -lc_p
/usr/bin/ld: dynamic STT_GNU_IFUNC symbol `strcmp' with pointer equality
in
`/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.9/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libc_p.a(strcmp.op)'
can not be used when making an executable; recompile with -fPIE and
relink with -pie
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status


I was able to make executable using one of the following compile lines:

$ gcc -g -pg test.c -nodefaultlibs  -lc_p -lgcc_eh -lc_p

or

$ gcc -g -pg test.c -nodefaultlibs -Wl,--start-group -lc_p -lgcc_eh
-Wl,--end-group

However the resulting executable segfaults:

$ ./a.out
