Looks like a mismatch, since such flags are clearly meant for a cross gcc wrapper, though I wonder how such a thing would have been missed - can't see what I would have done wrong though... 81586 1 richard.purdie 2018-09-20 14:43:15 +0000 https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2013-January/011590.html 81587 2 richard.purdie 2018-09-20 18:12:07 +0000 This definitely is an oddity but it matches how the build system works today. I believe there may be some oddity in autotools and we're following the convention with the SDK matching the way the rest of OE works. I did once look into either specifiing gcc as LD or making LDFLAGS not use the -Wl prefixes but doing that basically causes the world to break. I don't really want to change the SDK to be different to the build system and I also suspect if we did, it would stop working with autotool'd projects. We should probably check into this a bit further but I can't see a way we can realistically change what we have here... 81588 3 richard.purdie 2018-09-20 18:14:06 +0000 See https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3920 86148 4 ross.burton 2020-01-29 16:36:56 +0000 Assigning to RP so he can decide whether we do something, or just close it as a fact. 86503 5 richard.purdie 2020-02-19 23:35:41 +0000 We really can't change this, this is how the world expects these variables to behave, odd as it sounds...
