Source: debugedit Version: 1:5.0-4 Severity: minor Dear Maintainer,
Please drop the 'gcc-driver.diff' debian patch from the debugedit source package. The patch breaks testsuite tests 6, 7, 11, 14, 18, and 23, all of which involve partial linking[1], when compiling on an oldstable Debian 10 Buster system with its gcc-8 compiler and ld version 2.31.1 linker. Additionally the patch just seems to be arbitrary and incorrect. [1] Test 19 is the only other test involving partial linking, but it is skipped by default. -- Plasma
