Subject: Re: FTBFS: /usr/bin/ld: unrecognized option '-Wl' Followup-For: Bug #1087764 Package: paraview Control: tags -1 ftbfs help
Looks like cmake 3.31 must have changed the way it handles LDFLAGS. Nothing else in the tool chain handling LDFLAGS has changed since october. paraview debian/rules is trying to add -Wl,--as-needed to LDFLAGS along with dpkg-buildflag's LDFLAGS. But cmake now generates a link.txt that throws them all together verbatim -Wl,-lc,-Wl,-z,relro,-Wl,--as-needed It looks like cmake is now expecting LDFLAGS to contain purely the link flags themselves, without the -Wl prefix. paraview could drop the explicit LDFLAGS handling. But that still leaves dpkg-buildflags setting LDFLAGS=-Wl,-z,relro with the "offending" -Wl prefix. Explicitly overriding dpkg-buildflags to deal with some change in cmake doesn't seem like the right way to proceed. Is it a bug in cmake 3.31? Or a bug in dpkg-buildflags? Advice needed.
