That would be http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116698 . |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
It didn't have a patch included at the time, but I suggested it was |
| 23 |
different, and described the appropriate patch (as described here) yet it |
| 24 |
was marked duplicate. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Given the discussion, expect to see the bug reopened, with a reference to |
| 27 |
this thread, and a patch. |
| 28 |

Spyderous, IMO the two issues are separate, two different ways to |
| 30 |
arrive at the same undesired result, so could be handled together or |
| 31 |
separately. As the hardened one doesn't have a current fix, while the QA |
| 32 |
message one does, and the latter really should be addressed before |
| 33 |
stabilization, while the other is going to take awhile, it would appear |
| 34 |
separate is best. Fix the one that's possible to fix now, leave the other |
| 35 |
for later. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
The LDFLAGS one (116698) would then be RESOLVED, FIXED, after application |
| 38 |
of the patch, the hardened one (110506) could be RESOLVED, LATER, or |
| 39 |
RESOLVED, UPSTREAM (given that there's a fair chance it'll be fixed for |
| 40 |
7.2), if desired, or left open, depending on what's easiest to track. |
