However I can add my recent story: After hardening perl, loading a DSO by perl failed. I believe the reason was the DSO had an undefined symbol which was not defined in any SO_NEEDed libraries. But because the symbol was never used at run-time, before hardening the executable, run-time linking passed. But after hardening, the -znow feature caused resolving all symbols at link time, including the missing symbol, so dlopen(3) failed. -- Petr -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
