Description Adrian von Bidder 2009-11-19 12:10:25 UTC 
Version:           svn r1037794 (using Devel)
Compiler:           GNU gold linker instead of "ld"
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Heyho!

See http://bugs.debian.org/556675 for details.

Essentially, the GNU gold linker doesn't resolve transitive dependencies .  Apparently, this trips up the build for kdelauncher.

See the Debian bug and the Wiki / discussion linked from there.

(I'm not currently taking any action in the Debian package because Debian uses the usual GNU ld which doesn't expose the bug, so there's no need for a Debian specific patch at this time.)

[Comment from a bug triager]
Moving old kdewebkit bug reports to kdelibs/kdewebkit. Sorry about the noise
