The --push-state tracks to a Debian-specific patch in the source, debian/patches/pr65913-workaround.diff. This was added to fix Debian bug #797577, a build failure with a particular boost-using package in Debian.
This new failure was introduced in the latest upload (5.2.1-17ubuntu4) and can be resolved by reverting the change in this version to debian/rules.patch. If this is an urgent problem (and it looks like it might be, if it impacts all qmake-using packages in the archive), I would recommend that someone upload this revert now, until a cleaner fix for the original bug can be found. ** Changed in: gcc-5 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged ** Changed in: gcc-5 (Ubuntu) Assignee: Canonical Foundations Team (canonical-foundations) => Matthias Klose (doko) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to qtbase-opensource-src in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1496743 Title: /usr/bin/ld.gold: --push-state: unknown option Status in gcc-5 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: With gcc 5.2.1-17ubuntu4, we're seeing https://launchpadlibrarian.net/218108553/buildlog_ubuntu-wily-amd64 .ubuntu-ui- toolkit_1.3.1639%2B15.10.20150916.2-0ubuntu1_BUILDING.txt.gz TJ- on #ubuntu-devel suggested: < TJ-> Mirv: bzoltan: the issue could be in qtbase-opensource-src-5.4.2+dfsg (qmake) which does "mkspecs/common/gcc-base-unix.conf:19:QMAKE_LFLAGS_USE_GOLD = -fuse-ld=gold" irrespective of libraries being linked.
