** Description changed: Hello Ubuntu team, I am a user of the libtango8 package available in Ubuntu repository. Since Ubuntu 13.10, this library is built with the option -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions. This generates problems for this software. In previous Ubuntu releases, it was not the case and the software worked nicely. In its source package, in the debian/rules file, there is this line export DEB_LDFLAGS_MAINT_STRIP="-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions" which should prevent the use of this -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions option when building the package but it seems that it is not true anymore. Is it a Ubuntu bug? Is there something we can do with the package developpers? Any help welcome Emmanuel + + [Impact] + + * The user cannot use anymore tango devices compiled with this version of the libtango8. symptoms are + the Db server refuse to start with the error: + sudo /usr/lib/tango/DataBaseds 2 -ORBendPoint giop:tcp:localhost:10000 + main(): arrived + Oups, no class defined in this server.
