When compiling under OpenEmbedded, the following error is seen
as of recently:
/srv/oe/build/tmp/hosttools/ld: cannot find /lib/libc.so.6 inside /
/srv/oe/build/tmp/hosttools/ld: cannot find /usr/lib/libc_nonshared.a inside /
/srv/oe/build/tmp/hosttools/ld: cannot find /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 inside /
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.host:95: scripts/extract-cert] Error 1
This is because 2cea4a7a1885 ("scripts: use pkg-config to
locate libcrypto") now calls for `pkg-config --libs libcrypto`
and inserts that into the Makefile rules as LDLIBS when
building extract-cert.c.
The problem is that --libs will include both -l and -L, which
will be out of order when compiling/linking.
This (very ugly) command is what's produced with OpenEmbedded:
gcc -Wp,-MMD,scripts/.extract-cert.d -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes \
-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -std=gnu89 \

-lcrypto
As per `make`'s documentation:
LDFLAGS
Extra flags to give to compilers when they are supposed to
invoke the linker, ‘ld’, such as -L. Libraries (-lfoo)
should be added to the LDLIBS variable instead.
LDLIBS
Library flags or names given to compilers when they are
supposed to invoke the linker, ‘ld’. LOADLIBES is a
deprecated (but still supported) alternative to LDLIBS.
Non-library linker flags, such as -L, should go in the
LDFLAGS variable.
