This is particularly annoying for shadow, as it is part of the essential
set, and it is currently not buildable (hardening-wrapper can't atm be
coinstalled with current binutils), breaking a set of QA jobs that
builds the essential set, and messing with statistics.
I don't think shadow really need hardening-wrapper at all. The build
system is a regular autoconf/autotools which respects CFLAGS.
The compat level is 6, so dh_auto_* won't export them, but you could
instead set DPKG_EXPORT_BUILDFLAGS and include
/usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk to get them (you need to do so *after* the
already presetn 'export DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS = hardening=+all').
BTW, Serge: you have staged a bunch of stuff in git already, can we have
them uploaded? If you lack a reactive sponsor feel free to email me (or
contact me over IRC).
Otherwise, as people are grumpy for this bug, can I NMU it? (I'd post a
proposed patch here, of course, etc).
