Package: gtklp
Version: 1.2.7-2.3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: debian-gcc@lists.debian.org
Usertags: ld-as-needed

Hello,

trying to build gtklp in Ubuntu (which uses ld --as-needed by default)
resulted in the following linking error:

,----[ https://launchpadlibrarian.net/103699915/buildlog_ubuntu-quantal-i386.gtklp_1.2.7-2.3_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz ]-

`----

Although -lX11 is in the linker call the problem is in the argument
order (it's listed before libgtklp.a).
The patch from bug #554752 fixed only linking with --no-add-needed but
not with --as-needed.

Attached is a fixed patch which adds -lX11 to gtklp_LDADD (in
gtklp/Makefile.am) instead of LDFLAGS, fixing linking both with
--no-add-needed and --as-needed.

Regards,
Michael
