Re: List of FTBFS in Ubuntu



Hi Lucas,

Thanks for generating this list.

This is not a bug in btag. The problem is that binutils-gold (used by
Ubuntu) breaks every program that uses Boost (among other C++
libraries):

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=602959

binutils-gold needs to support --add-needed and preferably make that
the default behavior, otherwise there will be lots of false positives
like this. I personally don't intend to work around it unless
binutils-gold support becomes mandatory for Debian (which hopefully
won't happen until binutils-gold is fixed).

Regards,
