The problem today is the python/py-cmd.c file. It is included in the build if Python support is enabled, and it calls into some MI functions (e.g. insert_mi_cmd_entry). If MI support is disabled, we get some undefined symbols like: mold: error: undefined symbol: insert_mi_cmd_entry(std::unique_ptr >) >>> referenced by py-micmd.c >>> python/py-micmd.o:(micmdpy_install_command(micmdpy_object*)) The python/py-cmd.c file should be included in the build if both Python and MI support are enabled. It is not a case we support today, but it could be done with a bit more configure code. However, I think we should just remove the --disable-gdbmi option, and just include MI support unconditionally. Tom Tromey proposed a while ago to remove this option, but it ended staying: https://inbox.sourceware.org/gdb-patches/20180628172132.28843-1-tom@tromey.com/ However, there was no strong opposition to remove it. The argument was just "bah, it doesn't hurt anybody". But given today's case, I would rather remove complexity rather than add some. I couldn't find anybody caring deeply for that option, and it's not like MI adds any external dependency. It's just a bit more code. Removing the option will not break anybody using --disable-gdbmi (it can be found in many build scripts [1]), since we don't flag invalid configure flags. So, remove the option from configure.ac, and adjust Makefile.in accordingly to always include the MI objects in the build.
