Package: inkscape
Version: 0.39+0.40pre4-1

Inkscape fails to build on mips(el) in the final linker step. The error
message is

[Peter Moulder (peter-moulder)]

As mentioned earlier, I'd start with touch src/ink{scape,view} && make
-k check and see what test programs do or don't link: different test
programs link against a different number of libraries.

The builder successfully built inkscape 0.39-7 on Oct 19, and failed to
build 0.40pre1 on Nov 5. First we should try to establish whether the
failure is due to a change in the build environment or to the change in
inkscape (e.g. due to the additional libraries inkscape 0.40pre1 links
against that 0.39-7 didn't).

I'm inclined to get the simplest thing out of the way first, so I'd
start with trying to build 0.39-7 again (which has previously compiled
successfully on mips{,el}). If it now fails, then this strongly
suggests that the bug is due to a change in the build environment.

However, my guess is that the problem is connected to one of the
dependencies added between 0.39 and 0.40. One way of finding which
would be a binary search through CVS versions, paying particular
attention to dates suggested by `cvs log configure.in'. (Most of the
new dependencies were added before configure.in was renamed to
configure.ac.) One thing to be careful of is that debian/control in CVS
may not have been kept in sync with the new dependencies, so assume the
Build-Depends of 0.40 if using a chroot environment.

Hello,

This bug is because inkscape is hitting a limit on the size of symbol tables
on these archs, and current versions of the toolchain error out such
circumstances (previous toolchain versions would silently truncate the
symbol table).

The attached patch switches inkscape's build from multigot symbol tables
(the default on mips and mipsel) to the more extensible xgot format.

Thanks,

Thank you very much for this patch, I'll include it into the debian
package and forward it upstream ASAP.

I'm not sure that this patch is suitable for upstream; it is a workaround
for certain current issues in the Debian toolchain, I'm not sure what effect
it would have to implement the same flags on other mips systems.
