binutils: advance SRCREV to obtain versioned symbols

2016-09-23T14:26:08+00:00

Libraries needing versioned symbols, for example mysql, are not
supported by current version of binutils in krogoth.

When mysql library from MariaDB is compiled with the current
version of binutils we encounter errors at runtime as seen
below where php linked to mysql tries to run:

php: relocation error: php: symbol mysql_server_init, version
 libmysqlclient_16 not defined in file libmysqlclient.so.18
 with link time reference

Above error appears even though symbols exist in library:

   245: 000000000001ecc0     0 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   13 mysql_server_init@@libmysqlclient_16
   279: 000000000001ecc0   297 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT   13 mysql_server_init@@libmysqlclient_18

The problem results from a bug in binutils that has already been
fixed upstream as well as on the 2.26 and 2.27 branches. We advance
the SRCREV on the 2.26 branch used in krogoth release to pick up the fix.

binutils: configure with --enable-deterministic-archives

Causes ar to use zero for timestamps and uids/gids by default when
creating static archives, which helps make builds deterministic.

binutils: Fix useless rpaths QA warning

2016-02-18T07:39:21+00:00

elfedit and readelf contains /usr/lib in elf header
this patch deletes them from binaries, ideally it
should be fixed in libtool and Makery of binutils

mips target binutils dont build gold so remove
them from ALTERNATIVES list

depend on own version of chrpath native, so builds on
build OS like Centos can work, the verison of chrpath
on centos is old enough to not support dealing with
multi-arch ELF files.

binutils: Use target provided zlib

2016-01-31T16:28:54+00:00

When using -fpie (security related cflags), qemux6-64 builds would
fail due to linker symbol errors. This was due to the internal zlib
that binutils was using.

Add the switch to tell it to use the target system zlib which is
already in DEPENDS. That zlib is already compiled with the correct
flags.
