Hi, webkit2gtk fails to build from source due to overflowing sections during the linking stage [1]: Source/WTF/wtf/CMakeFiles/WTF.dir/./DateMath.cpp.o: in function `_GLOBAL__sub_I_DateMath.cpp': ./build-soup3/./Source/WTF/wtf/DateMath.cpp:104:(.text.startup._GLOBAL__sub_I_DateMath.cpp+0x8): relocation truncated to fit: GPREL16 against symbol `WTF::weekdayName' defined in .bss._ZN3WTF11weekdayNameE section in Source/WTF/wtf/CMakeFiles/WTF.dir/./DateMath.cpp.o Source/WTF/wtf/CMakeFiles/WTF.dir/./DateMath.cpp.o: in function `__static_initialization_and_destruction_0': ./build-soup3/./Source/WTF/wtf/DateMath.cpp:105:(.text.startup._GLOBAL__sub_I_DateMath.cpp+0x24): relocation truncated to fit: GPREL16 against symbol `WTF::monthName' defined in .bss._ZN3WTF9monthNameE section in Source/WTF/wtf/CMakeFiles/WTF.dir/./DateMath.cpp.o ./build-soup3/./Source/WTF/wtf/DateMath.cpp:106:(.text.startup._GLOBAL__sub_I_DateMath.cpp+0x54): relocation truncated to fit: GPREL16 against symbol `WTF::monthFullName' defined in .bss._ZN3WTF13monthFullNameE section in Source/WTF/wtf/CMakeFiles/WTF.dir/./DateMath.cpp.o collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status This can be fixed by passing -mlarge-data and -mlarge-text to gcc: --- debian/rules.orig 2025-03-14 23:12:01.000000000 +0100 +++ debian/rules 2025-03-27 10:18:12.936034298 +0100 @@ -63,6 +63,10 @@ # Don't build with -gsplit-dwarf (see #1016936) EXTRA_CMAKE_ARGUMENTS += -DDEBUG_FISSION=OFF +ifneq (,$(filter $(DEB_HOST_ARCH),alpha)) + CPPFLAGS += -mlarge-data -mlarge-text +endif + # Use the CLoop Javascript interpreter and disable the JIT.
