--- Comment #5 from Jethro Beekman <sourceware-bugzilla at jbeekman dot nl> --- This indeed seems to be the case. In particular, on Ubuntu 14.04, this patch is not applied: http://apt-browse.org/browse/debian/wheezy/main/all/binutils-source/2.22-8/file/usr/src/binutils/patches/158_ld_system_root.patch . It is applied on all other versions of Debian/Ubuntu I have tested. On all these OS'es, the linker is invoked with --sysroot=/ but it only has any effect on Ubuntu 14.04, and from the strace log I can indeed see that the linker tries to access /dir/liba.so. I don't think the sysroot should be prepended to relative paths. Here's a patch to fix: diff --git a/ld/emultempl/elf32.em b/ld/emultempl/elf32.em index 682f5e5..a70b138 100644 --- a/ld/emultempl/elf32.em +++ b/ld/emultempl/elf32.em @@ -1282,9 +1282,12 @@ fragment <<EOF rp = bfd_elf_get_runpath_list (link_info.output_bfd, &link_info); for (; !found && rp != NULL; rp = rp->next) { - char *tmpname = gld${EMULATION_NAME}_add_sysroot (rp->name); + char *tmpname = NULL, *name; + if (rp->name[0] == '/') + tmpname = gld${EMULATION_NAME}_add_sysroot (rp->name); + name = tmpname ? tmpname : rp->name; found = (rp->by == l->by - && gld${EMULATION_NAME}_search_needed (tmpname, + && gld${EMULATION_NAME}_search_needed (name, &n, force)); free (tmpname); -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
