Hi, I have recompiled x11/libxkbcommon and it fails to detect if the compiler/linker supports versioned symbols. As a result other code expecting the versioned symbol to exist, fail to link. C compiler for the host machine: cc (clang 19.1.5 "FreeBSD clang version 19.1.5 (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git llvmorg-19.1.5-0-gab4b5a2db582)") C linker for the host machine: cc ld.lld 19.1.5 Below the meson.build check. If I force have_version_script to true, the versioned symbols are created and other code links fine. # Supports -Wl,--version-script? have_version_script = cc.links( 'int main(){}', args: '-Wl,--undefined-version,--version-script=' + meson.current_source_dir()/'xkbcommon.map', name: '-Wl,--version-script', ) Below the output for the test. Checking if "-Wl,--version-script" : links: NO If I create test.c with content "int main(){}” and compile it manually with the same flags AFAIK, it compiles ok. No errors. However when I capture "make configure" with ktrace, it fails with the error below. ld: error: non-exported symbol 'environ' in '/usr/lib/crt1.o' is referenced by DSO '/lib/libc.so.7' ld: error: non-exported symbol '__progname' in '/usr/lib/crt1.o' is referenced by DSO '/lib/libc.so.7' cc: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) What flags need to be added in meson.build to allow it to work? BTW This is on recent stable, but I suspect it fails the same way on current which I do not run at the moment. Peter
