Description Jens Petersen 2024-05-09 11:09:18 UTC
While testing a start script fix for xmonad on F40+ I ran into this:

```
Errors detected while compiling xmonad config: /home/petersen/.xmonad/xmonad.hs
$ ghc --make xmonad.hs -i -ilib -fforce-recomp -main-is main -v0 -outputdir /home/petersen/.xmonad/build-x86_64-linux -o /home/petersen/.xmonad/xmonad-x86_64-linux
gcc: fatal error: cannot read spec file ‘/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-annobin-cc1’: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
ghc-9.4.5: `gcc' failed in phase `Linker'. (Exit code: 1)
```

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. dnf install xmonad
2. mkdir ~/.xmonad
3. cp /usr/share/xmonad/xmonad.hs ~/.xmonad
4. xmonad --recompile
Actual Results:  
From the description above for the full error dialog output.

gcc: fatal error: cannot read spec file ‘/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-annobin-cc1’: No such file or directory

Expected Results:  
No compilation error

Of course one can install redhat-rpm-config to workaround this,
but it is not very obvious why/when this is now required?

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2024-05-09 11:23:17 UTC
gcc doesn't add those -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-annobin-cc1 options, redhat-rpm-config does, and apparently something (ghc?) saved that option to some file and reads it from there and passes to gcc.  Don't do that or filter such options out.

Comment 2 Jens Petersen 2024-05-09 13:36:39 UTC
Thank you very much for the insight, Jakub.

Grepping I found the culprit it seems:

/usr/lib64/ghc-9.4.5/lib/package.conf.d/X11-1.10.3.conf:    -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-annobin-cc1 "-Wl,--build-id=sha1"
