%{_libdir}/libgc.so.1.0.3 exists in both F-20 and Rawhide, and both
have an soname of libgc.so.1, but the two libraries are NOT
compatible. I just discovered this by accident while trying to
rebuild ecl for a totally different reason. It fails like so:
libeclmin.a(alloc_2.o): In function `init_alloc':
/builddir/build/BUILD/ecl-13.5.1/src/c/alloc_2.d:1091: undefined
reference to `GC_start_call_back'
libeclmin.a(alloc_2.o): In function `si_gc_stats':
/builddir/build/BUILD/ecl-13.5.1/src/c/alloc_2.d:1214: undefined
reference to `GC_print_stats'
/builddir/build/BUILD/ecl-13.5.1/src/c/alloc_2.d:1237: undefined
reference to `GC_print_stats'
/builddir/build/BUILD/ecl-13.5.1/src/c/alloc_2.d:1230: undefined
reference to `GC_print_stats'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [ecl_min] Error 1
And, sure enough, I can't actually run ecl in Rawhide right now
because of those missing functions. This is a heads up to other
maintainers. If your package uses libgc, check that it still works
and can be rebuilt in Rawhide.
