Bug ID: 26176 Summary: Backend modules of elfutils are always linked to shared library Product: elfutils Version: unspecified Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: backends Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: madebr at gmail dot com CC: elfutils-devel at sourceware dot org Target Milestone: --- The backend modules of elfutils are always linked to the shared libelf.so library. Assume an application links to a static libelf.a library. When this application loads a backend library, some symbols are present twice: once in the libelf.so and once in the static user application. This effectively makes using the static libraries undefined behaviour. I've googled around a bit how others solve this and found this: https://discourse.cmake.org/t/static-libraries-and-loadable-modules/1176 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
