RPM spec patch to apply code patch
I've confirmed that the gerbv patch Debian cherry-picked, dd8f9fa, solves the problem. I've attached that patch, along with a trivial patch to the RPM spec which applies it. Hello Eric I think this problem is still bugging you ? I will try to move it forward... Hi Alain, That would be great! Let me know if I can be of any assistance. This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life. On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 28. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '28'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 28 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 28 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-05-28. Fedora 28 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
Created attachment 1444984 [details] trivial example source file Description of problem: Use of libgerbv from a C++ program fails to link, complaining of an undefined reference to 'screen' Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.2-1 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Attempt to compile a trival program using libgerbv (see attachments) Actual results: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/7/../../../../lib64/libgerbv.so: undefined reference to `screen' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [<builtin>: main] Error 1 Expected results: successful link Additional info: Web search reveals reports of this happening with 2.6.1, but claimed to have been fixed in 2.6.2. Debian says they cherry-picked a commit from 2013 to fix it, which seems somewhat dubious to me.
