It is the case where the static linker needs to pull in a library because of a DT_NEEDED tag in some other library it pulled in. In this situation, I think the static linker tries to act like the dynamic linker would wrt searching for the libraries. So adding explicit -L/usr/lib64 doesn't help. /etc/ld.so.cache is consulted for this special search so I used that as a workaround. But /usr/lib64 should not need to be in /etc/ld.so.cache, so there is probably some minor thing missing from the binutils sources or in the configure command used to build it. _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
