Package: lld Version: 1:7.0-47.1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
If you try to link a largish program with lld-7 on ppc64le you get errors: relocation R_PPC64_REL24 out of range: -15683216 is not in [-8388608, 8388607] This feature is added in lld-8 and is essential to make the package useful on this platform. Thus, please make lld-8 default on ppc64el now, insteading of waiting until it is appropiate for more mature architectures. -Shawn Landden -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.0 APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: ppc64el (ppc64le) Kernel: Linux 5.1.0-gfe9812cb9 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages lld depends on: ii lld-7 1:7.0.1-8 lld recommends no packages. lld suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
