Package: qemu Version: 1:2.4+dfsg-5 Severity: normal User: debian-sp...@lists.debian.org Usertags: sparc64
Hello! qemu currently fails to build from source on sparc64 because it sets both the linker parameters "-r" and "--relax": cc -nostdlib -Wl,-r -o block/iscsi.mo block/iscsi.o /usr/bin/ld: --relax and -r may not be used together collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [block/iscsi.mo] Error 1 /«BUILDDIR»/qemu-2.4+dfsg/rules.mak:117: recipe for target 'block/iscsi.mo' failed This happens because gcc is called with "-Wl,-r" which does not gcc's internal mechanism to disable "--relax" at the same time (for whatever reason). Thus, on sparc*, gcc should be either called with just "-Wl" but not with "-r" or the option "-no-relax" should be passed in order to fix this problem. ghc upstream had the same problem and fixed the issue by setting "-no-relax" for sparc [1]. Please apply a similar fix for qemu. Cheers, Adrian > [1] https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3791 -- .''`.
