We had a discussion on #debian-release, which I'm quoting for completeness sake: aurel32: are we sure systemd is the only package affected by this? mbiebl: no it's not only systemd mbiebl: there are some conditions to have the issue, which is to use the gold linker so that's not that many packages given bfd is the default in addition you need to have symbols with hidden visibility so clearly we'll have to rebuild a few packages when it's fixed on the binutils side, but we don't have 2.5 weeks of binaries aurel32: can we easily compile a list of "gold linker" consumers? mbiebl: i think having the workaround in systemd will help to not accumulate too much packages in the queue aurel32: I guess as a first step, I'll clone the current systemd bug and reassign it binutils nthykier: 1) we can parse the build logs from the last 3 weeks nthykier: 2) i think there is a way to identify the broken binaries aurel32: and I'll apply the workaround for systemd mbiebl: ok, thanks ifneq ($(filter $(DEB_BUILD_ARCH), mips mipsel mips64el),) export DEB_LDFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND = -Wl,-fuse-ld=bfd endif does that look ok? it looks fine to me We plan on uploading src:systemd today with this workaround applied until binutils is properly fixed. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth? signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Both of these bugs were caused by the systemd bug, so when binutils /
systemd is fixed they should build again.
Thanks,

There's also https://bugs.debian.org/851642 ("src:perl FTBFS on
mips64el"), and I noticed that iodine also FTBFS on mips65el (without
any code changes):

I haven't reassigned this bug report to binutils yet, as I wanted to have confirmation from the mips porters that it's a binutils bug. They sort-of already confirmed it on IRC but wanted to look into it more closely first. In any case, I've CCed them, so maybe they can respond to #850887 or #851412 Regards, Michael -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth? signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Hi there, as additional input, please have a look at [1] which just recently popped up. There seem to be still unresolved issues with binutils on mips*. We had quite a few regressions since the 2.28 snapshots were uploaded and we still seem to be running into them. At this point in the release cycle, I'm not sure what the best couse of action is. Continue uploading 2.28 snapshots from trunk until and chasing (new) issues/regression or going back to 2.27. My gut feeling is that the latter is the safer option, but maybe there is a good reason why we want/need 2.28 for stretch. So far Matthias hasn't responded to [2] though.

I posted this to the wrong bug, now reposting: Dear Matthias: Hi. As I understand our IRC conversation, you asked me to keep the TC bug regarding mips binutils open even after your upload. First, I want to confirm that understanding. Second, what are you hoping for from the TC at this point? I think you've resolved the issue that came to us, and absent your request I'd normally close this bug. We're happy to help, but would appreciate guidance on how we could be of assistance. --Sam
