2020-09-10 Thread Leo Prikler
Hi Marinus, I've noticed your report and quickly found a rather crude way of fixing it. I'm not sure, why meson tries to link gnome-builder statically against selinux in the first place, but it should do the job. Regards, Leo Leo Prikler (1): gnu: Fix gnome-builder build. gnu/packages/gnome

2020-09-10 Thread Leo Prikler
As reported in #43296, gnome-builder tries to be linked against the static version of libselinux (propagated through glib/gio), failing to do so, as it also wants to be a PIE. To keep the PIE, link it against the dynamic library. * gnu/packages/gnome.scm (gnome-builder)[#:phases]: Add 'fix-ninja.
