So I should file this as a bug against factory or tumbleweed? There was some disagreement about whether or not they should be treated the same? Because these utils 'should' be statically linkable and *are* on redhat (which I thought opensuse was based on). So how did static linking get broken for us but still work for redhat? -------- Original Message -------- Subject: problem with static linking. of util-linux utils meant to be statically linkable... Date: Sat, 06 Oct 2018 12:30:59 -0700 From: L A Walsh <suse@tlinx.org> To: SuSE Linux <opensuse@opensuse.org> Was trying the rc1 version of util-linux 2.33, and it has an option to link several of its utils statically. It works for the maintainer on redhat, and I was wondering why I'm having problems on opensuse...
$ ./configure --enable-static-programs=mount,umount $ make mount.static umount.static .....
so I see... Except I got: CC sys-utils/mount_static-mount.o CCLD mount.static libtool: warning: complete static linking is impossible in this configuration /usr/bin/ld: total time in link: 0.038189 CC sys-utils/umount_static-umount.o CCLD umount.static libtool: warning: complete static linking is impossible in this configuration /usr/bin/ld: total time in link: 0.039017 with ldd: Ishtar:tools/util-linux/util-linux-2.33-rc1> ldd mount.static linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffc38d78000) librt.so.1 => /lib64/librt.so.1 (0x0000003001c00000) libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x0000003000800000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x0000003000c00000) /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f81b9262000) So why would it work on redhat but not opensuse?
