I wasn't aware that --as-needed breaks the patch. As part of enabling hardening flags I moved the --as-needed flag, but wasn't aware, that the flag previously didn't work as expected.
It was previously set in debian/rules but not exported to the shell environment that runs ./configure. In debhelper compat levels <9 you have to do this by hand or explicitely pass the flags to ./configure.
- your basically reverting the patch through an extra link flag.
While I understand that --as-needed removes the apparently unnecessary linkage against libstdc++, which was artificially introduced by the patch before, I fail to understand the reasons that are given in the patch commit. Could someone please elaborate?
