--- Begin Message ---Source: apt-dater Version: 1.0.0-1 Severity: important Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past) http://buildd.debian-ports.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=apt-dater&arch=m68k&ver=1.0.0-1&stamp=1414802346 make[3]: Entering directory '/«PKGBUILDDIR»/conf' ld -r -b binary -o apt-dater.blob apt-dater.config ld: failed to merge target specific data of file apt-dater.config Makefile:437: recipe for target 'apt-dater.blob' failed make[3]: *** [apt-dater.blob] Error 1 The reason here is you’re doing an invalid operation. If you want to embed the apt-dater.config binary into your program, you can do it like this: $ cat >apt-dater.config.S <<'EOF' .section .comment .asciz "version of apt-dater.config, in case you want to embed it" .section .rodata .global aptdaterconfig .type aptdaterconfig,@object aptdaterconfig: .incbin "apt-dater.config" .size aptdaterconfig,.-aptdaterconfig .globl aptdaterconfig_end aptdaterconfig_end: EOF $ gcc -c -o apt-dater.config.o apt-dater.config.S Then you have extern unsigned char *aptdaterconfig, *aptdaterconfig_end; and can access the size using (aptdaterconfig_end - aptdaterconfig) in C. You could also write it into the asm file, but that wastes 4 or 8 bytes (and you’d need the right asm pseudo-op for the target architecture). Note that aptdaterconfig_end does not have a .type because it’s just a label. Note that .S files are processed by $CC, which invokes first cpp(1) on them (so /* … */ style comments are fine to use) then as(1). This works on all ELF platforms using GNU as. That is, all of Debian, and probably all of contemporary Linux. I’m using it quite a bit in MirBSD, e.g. to embed the kernel config into the kernel binary, and to embed the manpage into the fdisk binary so it can be displayed during runtime (helps the installer). -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unreleased APT policy: (500, 'unreleased'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: m68k Kernel: Linux 3.16-2-m68k Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/lksh
