We now only have --no-relax, passed to the linker.Which obviously isn't the point. It took time and effort to do something that was already done elsewhere. By the way, this is also the exact solution used for some time on Gentoo.
Well, it would be better to hunt down the linker problem and the gcc optimization problem(s) (eg. -Os on alpha), but that's not trivial...
Elsewhere done right, but not with the same tools and not in the same environment...
You, Oliver, and Jay are two of the best developers we have, and it seems to me to be such a waste of your time and effort to worry about hunting down a build error and generating RPMs.Thx a lot for the flowers :-) Well, hunting down build errors is what we *have to do*. If we wouldn't do that, we wouldn't have recent gcc, glibc, xulrunner, firefox, kernel, ... And that we produce RPMs, well, we're packaging for Fedora. :-)Again. I think you missed the point here.
Well, what's the point? :-) [ ... ] -of
