Bug#1016091: RFS: tinymux/2.12.0.10-1 [RC] -- text-based multi-user virtual world server

[Stephen Dennis <brazilofmux@gmail.com>]

I wonder if it is a race condition in the Makefile. libmux.so is built from code in the package. It isn't an external dependency. From the Makefile:

MUX_LIBS = -lmux

...
all: libmux.so netmux slave stubslave links subdirs

...
stubslave: stubslave.o
        $(CXX) $(ALLCXXFLAGS) -o stubslave stubslave.o -L. $(LIBS) $(MUX_LIBS) $(STUBLIBS)

I bet that should be

  stubslave: stubslave.o libmux.so
        $(CXX) $(ALLCXXFLAGS) -o stubslave stubslave.o -L. $(LIBS) $(MUX_LIBS) $(STUBLIBS)

This has probably been an issue forever, but no one has tried to build it on enough cores, yet. And, likewise, I won't know for certain that it is fixed without someone without enough cores.

Alas, it fails to build:
g++ -std=c++14 -g -O2 -ffile-prefix-map=/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>=. -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security -g -O     -DSTUB_SLAVE       -o stubslave stubslave.o -L. -lm -lcrypt   -lmux
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmux: No such file or directory


Meow!
