Description Sandro Mani 2015-04-22 21:42:21 UTC 
Description of problem:
If you do an autoreconf -if of a project and then built it with the mingw toolchain, the libtool script copied into the project build dir contains

compiler_flags="-specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld"

which breaks the mingw build due to the unsupported -z option when building shared libraries:

/usr/lib/gcc/i686-w64-mingw32/5.0.0/../../../../i686-w64-mingw32/bin/ld: 
unrecognized option '-z'
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-w64-mingw32/5.0.0/../../../../i686-w64-mingw32/bin/ld: 
use the --help option for usage information


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

Comment 1 Erik van Pienbroek 2015-04-24 16:03:07 UTC 
mingw-libgcrypt also fails to build on rawhide due to this issue: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=9559968

Hi Erik, thanks for the report and sorry for the delay.

Without big observation, this seems to be expected behavior.  Otherwise the
package hardening would not work for libtool-compiled packages.

I believe this happens to you because Fedora Rawhide started to use
_hardened_build by default.  You need to %undefine _hardened_build, but
its not unlikely that this is not definite solution yet, see
the bug 1211296 for more info.

Please reopen against libtool or redhat-rpm-config if you feel
I'm wrong, thanks.

Pavel

This is not that bug, Pavel.

libtool *ships* with the setting inside. The RPM macro does nothing, undefined or not.
Comment 4 Pavel Raiskup 2015-04-24 22:25:41 UTC 
Ouch, thanks.  Its IMO related bug, however from the different POV.  Disabling
hardened build for libtool should fix that, yes?

That seems to have fixed it. Thanks.

Packages that use libtool will now not be hardened as intended by the RPM OPT FLAGS?

No, packages which use libtool should run ./configure to generate its own
script ./libtool from ltmain.sh (and the _configure_libtool_hardening_hack
will apply to them).

Ok. Thanks for clarifying.
