pmatilai added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` Last I looked (less than a year ago), libtool still doesn't play well with -Wl,--as-needed and needs some sort of patch/hack to either libtool itself or %configure to overcome the reordering problem, I don't think it's fixed upstream (after all these years, sigh). See eg https://sigquit.wordpress.com/2011/02/16/why-asneeded-doesnt-work-as-expecte... and https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=347650. It's still unfixed upstream AFAIK.
Note that I'm certainly not objecting to this change, just pointing out that merely adding -Wl,--as-needed to LDFLAGS wont work for a significant number of packages. ``
