Relocation error when running `mmc`

[Gintautas Miliauskas]

I have just recently upgraded to breezy. When I try to start `mmc`, the Mercury compiler, I get this error:

[~]$ mmc
/usr/lib/mercury/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/mercury_compile: relocation error: /usr/lib/mercury/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/mercury_compile: symbol __libc_stack_end, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file ld-linux.so.2 with link time reference
[exited with 127]

I rebuilt the package locally and the error went away.

I can confirm this bug is still occuring in Dapper (Beta 2).

[Allison Karlitskaya (desrt)]

Uhm. What's up, guys?

[Daniel Robitaille (robitaille)]

Still occurring in Edgy:

$ mmc
/usr/lib/mercury/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/mercury_compile: relocation error: /usr/lib/mercury/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu/mercury_compile: symbol __libc_stack_end, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file ld-linux.so.2 with link time reference

This problem is still present in feisty.

Also there is a new version of mercury. Is this package actively maintained?

[Gintautas Miliauskas (gintas)]

The problem seems to be gone now. Mercury starts fine here on Hardy. This bug can probably be closed (although a version update too would not hurt).

The mercury package has been removed from Ubuntu Intrepid (and Debian) so I am marking this bug invalid.
