I do not have the same issue with the stage3's in experimental/arm/musl - |
| 8 |
those allow static linking without issues. But I debugged further and |
| 9 |
found the issue: the ebuild uses the wrong strip command (host one) when |
| 10 |
stripping the built cross-musl. This makes it bug #552616 and I should |
| 11 |
have found it sooner because there are lots of messages like the following |
| 12 |
in the build-log: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-strip: Unable to recognise the format of the input file `/var/tmp/portage/cross-armv7a-hardfloat-linux-musleabi/musl-1.1.16/image/usr/armv7a-hardfloat-linux-musleabi/usr/lib/libc.a(cabs.o)' |

For now I solved the issue with RESTRICT="strip" but manual stripping |
| 17 |
similar to glibc probably should be added at some point. |

There's also another issue with the ebuild and cross-compiling: the |
| 20 |
getconf/getent/iconv tools get built before a libc is available and so |
| 21 |
fail to compile. They shouldn't even be built when cross-compiling, |
| 22 |
because there's a check in src_install to prevent them from being |
| 23 |
installed. Below is my patch to the ebuild to make things work. Would be |
| 24 |
nice to atleast get the src_compile() part commited. |
