Source: texlive-bin Version: 2011.20120507-1 Severity: Important Justification: Fails to build from source (but built in the past) User: debian-al...@lists.debian.org Usertags: alpha X-Debbugs-CC: debian-al...@lists.debian.org
texlive-bin FTBFS on Alpha with GRPEL16 relocation truncation errors during linking of pdftex. See build log at: http://buildd.debian-ports.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=texlive-bin&arch=alpha&ver=2011.20120507-1&stamp=1336527521 This is a longstanding problem with the optimiser in the linker on Alpha but can be worked around with the flag -Wl,--no-relax during linking. The following added to debian/rules: DEB_HOST_ARCH ?= $(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH) ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_ARCH), alpha) export LDFLAGS = -Wl,--no-relax endif results in a successful build.
