Description Chris Ricker 2003-08-27 12:41:16 UTC 
See attached cryptcat SRPM

On RHL 9, it's fine to rpmbuild -ba 
On severn yum'ed to rawhide, I get the following when building it:

cc -O2 -g -pipe -march=i386 -mcpu=i686 -c twofish2.cc
cc -O2 -g -pipe -march=i386 -mcpu=i686 -s         -DLINUX  -o cryptcat netcat.c
farm9crypt.o twofish2.o -lstdc++
collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault], core dumped
make[1]: *** [cryptcat] Error 1

If I edit the spec file and change the line

make CFLAGS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS" linux

to

make linux

then it compiles on rawhide, so it's only a problem when optimizing the code....

Created attachment 93971 [details]
cryptcat src rpm
Comment 2 Chris Ricker 2003-08-27 16:22:59 UTC 
Hmm, it's not an optimization issue after all, but the debugging info. The
problem is the -g that RPM_OPT_FLAGS adds.

cc -O2 -pipe -march=i386 -mcpu=i686 -s         -DLINUX  -o cryptcat netcat.c
farm9crypt.o twofish2.o -lstdc++

compiles just fine

cc -O2 -g -s -DLINUX -o cryptcat netcat.c farm9crypt.o twofish2.o -lstdc++

blows up when linking

this is

binutils-2.14.90.0.5-5
glibc-2.3.2-71
gcc-3.3.1-2

on an athlon
Comment 3 Chris Ricker 2003-08-27 16:33:00 UTC 
Just yum'ed to today's rawhide

still true with glibc-2.3.2-78
Comment 4 Michael Lee Yohe 2003-08-28 16:17:21 UTC 
I also get this whilst attempting to compile Rawhide man.
Comment 5 Michael Schwendt 2003-09-02 20:12:40 UTC 
Same with svgalib from Fedora package request queue:

collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault]

* binutils-2.14.90.0.5-6 from Severn Updates (9.0.93-4)

The older binutils-2.14.90.0.4-19 from original Severn doesn't have that problem.
