From 23e26355b11ce562dc7f9c4ad85b78e4b7c60f83 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mohammad Akhlaghi Date: Fri, 26 Jul 2019 01:17:57 +0100 Subject: PatchELF built statically and updated Until now, like all other software, PatchELF would install with dynamic linking. However, PatchELF links with `libstdc++' so on one system, I noticed that PatchELF gives a segmentation fault and corrupts `libstdc++' while correcting its RPATH (after installing GCC). The solution is to build PatchELF statically. With this commit, we force PatchELF to be built statically (it only installs on GNU/Linux systems anyway, so there is no problem with static linking on macOS). This solved the problem on that system. While looking at its documentation, I also noticed that a new version of PatchELF has been released after almost three years, so it has been updated in the template also. This fixes bug #56673. --- reproduce/software/config/installation/versions.mk | 2 +- reproduce/software/make/basic.mk | 8 +++++++- 2 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'reproduce/software') diff --git a/reproduce/software/config/installation/versions.mk b/reproduce/software/config/installation/versions.mk index 80d9619..14c43d1 100644 --- a/reproduce/software/config/installation/versions.mk +++ b/reproduce/software/config/installation/versions.mk @@ -47,7 +47,7 @@ mpfr-version = 4.0.2 mpc-version = 1.1.0 ncurses-version = 6.1 openssl-version = 1.1.1a -patchelf-version = 0.9 +patchelf-version = 0.10 pkgconfig-version = 0.29.2 readline-version = 8.0 sed-version = 4.7 diff --git a/reproduce/software/make/basic.mk b/reproduce/software/make/basic.mk index 5535019..e544234 100644 --- a/reproduce/software/make/basic.mk +++ b/reproduce/software/make/basic.mk @@ -519,8 +519,14 @@ $(ibidir)/readline: $(tdir)/readline-$(readline-version).tar.gz \ SHLIB_LIBS="-lncursesw" -j$(numthreads)) \ && echo "GNU Readline $(readline-version)" > $@ +# Patchelf has to be built statically because it links with the C++ +# standard library.
