From 32fe6a540beaf240df0aa5560ab040bef6ed7577 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Le Bihan Date: Fri, 30 Dec 2016 22:55:10 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] skalibs: make ld use dummy file when configuring For some architectures, like Xtensa or HPPA, ld from binutils requires the output file to be a regular file, as mentioned in a bug report on the mailing list [1]. So, use a dummy file as output file for ld, instead of /dev/null, when trying to detect some libraries at configuration time.
