Hi,
I have the following i686-only WebKitGTK build failure in rawhide [1]:
ninja: build stopped: stat(lib/libWebCoreGTK.a): Value too large for
defined data type.
Based on [2], I assume the problem is that either ar or ranlib is not
built with large file support. Does this seem correct? Should I report
a bug against our binutils package?
It reminds me of [3], a very similar bug that we resolved years ago by
switching from -g to -g1. For now, I'll test dropping down to -g0, but
even this will be a temporary solution ta best. (I don't know if that
will work or not yet. Will try now.)
Michael
P.S. Take one was [4], and the disadvantage of using ExcludeArch is it
would require modifying the spec of every dependent package to also use
ExcludeArch. I prefer that to delaying WebKitGTK updates over this,
though.
