Subject: gcc: link scan order of /usr/lib and /usr/lib/w32api
Date: Thu, 25 Feb 2016 17:44:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <56CF3D8B.2050703@cygwin.com> (raw)
JonY,
It has been brought to my attention that /usr/lib/w32api is now taking
precedence over /usr/lib, which is a result of this commit:
https://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs/gcc?view=revision&revision=227962
https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/commit/c1b7008c95f97dd7c11997e7be7be7b58d113db0
This is incorrect, and results in the unfortunately-named w32api
libuuid.a being found instead of the completely unrelated *NIX libuuid
(which is what *NIX software expects to find).
Linking from /usr/lib/w32api is handled in binutils, and this is the fix
that my cygwin cross-toolchains are using to support sysroots:
https://github.com/cygwinports/cygwin32-binutils/blob/master/01-w32api-sysroot.patch
Please revert r227962.
