[Bug 210331] New: binutils breaks brp-strip-debug on x86_64
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=210331 Summary: binutils breaks brp-strip-debug on x86_64 Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 5 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Blocker Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: schwab@novell.com ReportedBy: cthiel@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de CC: aj@novell.com, jw@novell.com, lrupp@novell.com, mls@novell.com, kukuk@novell.com Building (e.g.) coreutils on x86_64 results in extra large binaries. Looking at the rpm size header of coreutils in STABLE for x86_64 reveals a payload size of 193 MB, which is the unstripped size. Looking at the file size with ls and du: $ ls -lh -rwxr-xr-x 1 99 99 2,1M 2006-10-05 20:45 basename $ du -sh basename 40K basename $ Looks like a sparse file, eh? While debugging this problem, we rebuilt coreutils with binutils from alpha4 (2.17.50.0.3-6), which fixed the problem for us ;( This is only happening on x86_64 and blocking the release of openSUSE 10.2 Alpha5 right now. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=210331 ------- Comment #4 from rschiele@gmail.com 2006-10-05 15:59 MST ------- This is triggered by H.J. Lu's fix for PR ld/3223 and PR ld/3267. This makes the linker to store an null-sized INIT_ARRAY section into the binary with a miscalculated offset address. Actually the offset address is the real address | 0x00200000. An ugly workaround is to comment out the line && !os->section_relative_symbol to get back the old behaviour. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
