--- Begin Message ---Package: mklibs Version: 0.1.16.1 Severity: normal Tags: d-i This could easily be a binutils bug or something and not a mklibs issue. I'm seeing it on mipsel, during the d-i build or by hand, and it seems to be truncating some symbols. For example: joeyh@enyo:~/installer/build/tmp$ mkdir foo joeyh@enyo:~/installer/build/tmp$ cd foo joeyh@enyo:~/installer/build/tmp/foo$ cp /usr/bin/whiptail . joeyh@enyo:~/installer/build/tmp/foo$ mklibs -d . whiptail I: Using ld.so.1 as dynamic linker. I: library reduction pass 1 83 symbols, 83 unresolved I: library reduction pass 2 207 symbols, 57 unresolved Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/mklibs", line 473, in ? raise "No library provides non-weak " + symbol No library provides non-weak NAMIC joeyh@enyo:~/installer/build/tmp/foo$ objdump -T libnewt.so.0.51-so-stripped |grep NAMIC DYNAMIC SYMBOL TABLE: 000000ec g DO *ABS* 00000000 Base _DYNAMIC 00000000 DO *UND* 00000826 NAMIC Now, I'm sure that "NAMIC" was not a symbol in libnewt before mklibs reduced it. During the d-i daily builds it fails similarly but with a symbol "ng", which is probably the end of one of the _string symbols. Workaround is to remove libnewt-pic. None of the other libraries used by d-i seem to trigger the problem. (I tried it with versions 0.51.6-31 and 0.51.6-30 of the newt libraries, same problem with either. Also reproduced it on two different raq2's.) -- see shy jo

I don't think it's been an issue in recent years, so closing this bug report for now. Mraw, KiBi.
