Hello Matthias, or anyone else affected, Accepted binutils into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/binutils/2.26.1-1ubuntu1~16.04 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .

The idea is to include these final point releases into 16.04.1 LTS, with test rebuilds done for all packages, and regression checks for seeded packages. Acceptance criteria should be no regressions for the seeded packages, plus a best effort for unseeded packages. During the analysis of the build failures, one gcc regression (libstdc++ header reorg) was found and reverted, and validated, that these build failures are fixed (plus affected seeded packages were uploaded to xenial-proposed anyway). reference test rebuild: http://people.ubuntuwire.org/~wgrant/rebuild-ftbfs-test/test-rebuild-20160614-baseline-xenial.html test rebuild (xenial-release): http://people.ubuntuwire.org/~wgrant/rebuild-ftbfs-test/test-rebuild-20160614-xenial.html test rebuild (xenial-updates): http://people.ubuntuwire.org/~wgrant/rebuild-ftbfs-test/test-rebuild-20160614-updates-xenial.html The test rebuild was done using packages from the ubuntu- toolchain-r/ppa. Attached is an analysis of the build failures, and whether they are regressions, or already are present in the xenial release. main component ============== bzr LP: #1592731, fixed in -proposed ecj LP: #1592801, fixed in -updates freerdp not a regression gcc-5-cross needs update after gcc-5 acceptance gnutls28 LP: #1592693, fixed in -updates kmod unrelated, tracked in LP: #1592722 libnih not a regression llvm-toolchain-3.6 not a regression migrate unrelated (mysql-5.7), tracked in LP: #1592663 neon27 (s390x) unrelated, traked in LP: #1592698 openvswitch not a regression, tracked in LP: #1592793 python-pymysql unrelated (mysql-5.7), tracked in LP: #1592664 python-tooz unrelated, tracked in LP: #1592660 sbsigntool not a regression shim not a regression strongswan racy test, unrelated, tracked in LP: #1592706 ubuntu-defaults-builder unrelated, LP: #1597370, waiting for approval upstart not a regression whoopsie LP: #1592649, fixed in -updates yaboot not a regression bzr package set =============== bzr-builder bzr-upload no regressions cli-mono package set ==================== gbrainy ikvm monodevelop tangerine no regressions desktop-extra package set ========================= java-gnome not a regressions edubuntu package set ==================== atomix gbrainy no regressions input-methods package set ========================= fcitx-table-other libkkc no regressions kubuntu package set (minus packages from main) ============================================== avogadro not a regression eigen2 not a regression fam not a regression farstream-0.2 not a regression gst-plugins-base0.10 not a regression gst-plugins-good0.10 not a regression gstreamer0.10 not a regression kqoauth not a regression kubuntu-web-shortcuts not a regression libmpc not a regression libmygpo-qt not a regression libspe2 not a regression networkmanager-qt obsoleted by version in -updates plotutils not a regression qtcurve not a regression tbb not a regression telepathy-haze not a regression telepathy-qt not a regression lubuntu package set ==================== hardinfo not a regression libguess not a regression mozilla package set ==================== eclipse xiphos no regressions mythbuntu package set ===================== piston-mini-client not a regression schooltool package set ====================== schooltool-book not a regression ubuntu-cloud package set ======================== virtualbox needs fix for bad GCC version check, in progress (LocutusOfBorg) ubuntu-qt-packages package set ============================== ciborium not a regression ubuntukylin package set ======================= libguess piston-mini-client ubuntu-kylin-meta no regressions ubuntustudio package set ======================== font-manager jamin openclipart xcftools no regressions xorg package set ================ xorg-gtest unrelated to toolchain updates, checked locally packages fixed before gcc-5 was fixed to revert one libstdc++ header reorganization patch (the packages are also fixed in xenial-proposed/-updates): ============================================================= audacious-plugins LP: #1597407, accepted in -proposed baloo-kf5 LP: #1597427, accepted in -proposed brlaser LP: #1592659, fixed in -updates dbus-cpp LP: #1592814, in progress libqapt LP: #1597425, accepted in -proposed mir LP: #1592691, in progress To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/binutils/+bug/1586673/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
