Well, you've set the package to "lvm2", but it's a global problem with GNU ld that I've ran into with my own code.

Regards,

Assigning to the correct package - "binutils", as it is a problem with /usr/bin/ld.

Source RPM: lvm2 => binutils

Pinging, because nothing has happened with this report for more than 3 months, it still has the status NEW or REOPENED.

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

This bug still exists in Mageia Linux Cauldron (also in Mageia 2). Removing "NEEDINFO".

Keywords: NEEDINFO => (none)
Whiteboard: (none) => MGA2TOO

Sorry, but this bug saw no action since over 2 yrs ago. 
No cauldron package has stayed the same since then.

Closing as OLD

Please reopen if this report is still valid for _current_ cauldron and/or fully
updated Mageia 4

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => OLD

Still happens on Mageia Cauldron x86-64 (What will become Mageia 5):

I suppose that Gentoo patch is useless, because it is about patching lvm2 instead of binutils.

Removing the link.

I don't see anything in RedHat bugzilla about this issue in Fedora 20 or later. 
That might be because I didn't search well enough. 
However, if you do have a Rawhide (or 21 or 20) at hand: does it fail there, too?

I will test it in a VM and let you know.

Thanks!

An update, I have installed a Fedora 21 x86-64 VM and discovered that the glibc-profile package there is no longer available for it. I can try it with what is reported at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=642999 and check the static library. Will that be adequate?

Sorry, I don't have the slightest idea. Maybe the assignee can tell, but he might be too busy fixing things that affect many more users.

You'll have a much better understanding of static vs dynamic than I have.
In case you didn't read that, here https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=785399#c20 someone with a similar llvm2 issue, decided to forget about static. Don't know whether that is of any use?

@ Shlomi

Is this bug still valid?

Hi all!

I should note that when trying to reproduce the problem on my Debian Stretch VM, I realised that -lc_p was not available there and ended up finding these resources:

* https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=760450

* http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/g/glibc/glibc_2.23-0ubuntu3/changelog

apprently â* Remove libc6-prof package as it's broken for years and there are better ways to profile code nowadays. Closes: #760450.â. Should we follow suit?

another note is that now:

shlomif@telaviv1:~/progs/C/snippets/shlomif-c-snippets$ gcc -fPIE hello_world.c -lc_p -pie
