Thanks, Ian. I replaced the link spec like so: > > *link: > -L/home/sjackman/.linuxbrew/lib -rpath /home/sjackman/.linuxbrew/lib > --dynamic-linker /home/sjackman/.linuxbrew/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 Note that replacing the link spec is a patently bad idea and breaks building shared libraries (and probably other things). I should have appended to the link spec by using the `+' function. *link: + -L/home/sjackman/.linuxbrew/lib -rpath /home/sjackman/.linuxbrew/lib --dynamic-linker /home/sjackman/.linuxbrew/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 Cheers, Shaun
