Yep. Can I suggest: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
-Wl,--as-needed has been added to the default profile's LDFLAGS. |
| 18 |

This option optimizes the linking process, only linking binaries to |
| 20 |
libraries that are trully needed. This way, fewer libraries are loaded |
| 21 |
at runtime and fewer packages need to be rebuilt after library updates. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
To take advantage of the new default you can either rebuild world now or just |
| 24 |
allow the system to migrate incrementally as it updates. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Please note that setting LDFLAGS="<your flags>" in your make.conf will |
| 27 |
override the profile defaults. If you want to add additional LDFLAGS it is |
| 28 |
recommended to use LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} <your flags>" instead to avoid this. |
