Bug#807170: libQtUiTools.a(quiloader.o): unrecognized relocation (0x2a) in section `.text'

[Bas Couwenberg <sebastic@xs4all.nl>]

Source: qt4-x11
Version: 4:4.8.7+dfsg-5
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

As reported in #806324 qgis FTBFS with a relocation error that seems to
be caused by libQtUiTools.a from libqt4-dev:

 /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/5/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libQtUiTools.a(quiloader.o):
 unrecognized relocation (0x2a) in section `.text'

Stangely it only affects testing, but not the same version in unstable.

I hoped this was fixed with libqt4-dev (4:4.8.7+dfsg-5) that migrated to
testing today, but unfortunately the issue persists.

Can you confirm that this is an issue with the static libQtUiTools.a
library on testing?

Kind Regards,

Bas
