Description Mr-4 2013-08-06 23:30:56 UTC

Description of problem:
When using rpmbuild with older gcc versions (4.4.x, 4.5.x etc) the compiler cannot produce executables.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
9.1.0

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpmbuild -bb <spec_file>
2.
3.

Actual results:
An error is produced during configure/compile state due to the wrong option used as indicated above.

Expected results:
No errors to be produced.

Additional info:
This is produced as a result of the inclusion of "-grecord-gcc-switches" option in the %__global_cflags macro included in "macros", which is NOT a valid gcc option on older version of the compiler. Please remove it.

Comment 1 Panu Matilainen 2013-08-07 06:43:44 UTC

The default compilation flags in redhat-rpm-config are strictly for the gcc shipped with the distro only. If you want to compile with something else you need to set your own defaults.
