Package: criu Version: 2.9-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I was trying to backport criu to jessie following the standard procedure from https://wiki.debian.org/SimpleBackportCreation. Compilation seems to work, but linking fails. Here's part of the output: ... make[3]: Entering directory '/scratch/debs/criu-2.9' GEN criu/arch/x86/../../include/syscall-codes.h GEN criu/arch/x86/../../include/syscall.h GEN criu/arch/x86/syscalls.S DEP criu/arch/x86/syscalls.d GEN criu/arch/x86/sys-exec-tbl.c CC criu/arch/x86/syscalls.o LINK criu/arch/x86/syscalls.built-in.o ld: -r and -shared may not be used together /scratch/debs/criu-2.9/scripts/nmk/scripts/build.mk:150: recipe for target 'criu/arch/x86/syscalls.built-in.o' failed make[3]: *** [criu/arch/x86/syscalls.built-in.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory '/scratch/debs/criu-2.9' criu/Makefile:39: recipe for target 'syscalls_lib' failed ... Could the problem be related to the applied patch 0001-build-nmk-Filter-out-Wl-flags-from-linking-builtin-t.patch? Or to the linking with ld? I can successfully build criu from the github sources on the same system. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.8.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 (SMP w/16 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
